ELOTES ASADOS
Grilled street-style corn is a staple all over Mexico. You will often see the corn being grilled in its husks over fire--but you can achieve great results on a stovetop. This recipe offers options for each. In both versions, you cook the corn in its husks to develop that smoky and sweet flavor that goes so well with creamy mayo, sour cream and salty Cotija cheese, making it one of the most delicious street foods you can find.

Steps:
- Prepare a grill for medium-high heat.
- Put the corn in their husks on the grill grate over direct heat. Cover the grill and cook, uncovering the grill and rotating the corn every 5 minutes or so, until the husks are evenly charred, about 15 minutes total.
- Alternatively, you can grill the corn on the stovetop. Heat a large cast-iron pan or grill over medium-high heat until very hot and smoking, about 5 minutes. Working in batches depending on the size of your pan or grill, put the corn in their husks on the hot pan. Cover the pan with a lid; you can also use a large skillet to cover it. Cook, uncovering the pan and rotating the corn every 5 minutes or so, until the husks are evenly charred, about 20 minutes total.
- Meanwhile, combine the crema, mayonnaise and lime juice in a medium bowl until smooth. Thin with 1 tablespoon of water if needed. Cover and chill the crema mixture until ready to serve.
- Pull back the corn husks and silks, leaving the husks attached to the base of the cobs. Using a pastry brush or a butter knife, spread the crema mixture on the corn. Transfer the corn to a platter, sprinkle generously with the Cotija on all sides and season with salt. Serve with reserved lime wedges for squeezing over the corn.
CHOCLO OR ELOTE ASADO
If you think nothing beats grilled fresh corn in the summer, think again: street vendors in Mexico, Chile, Peru, and other Central and South American countries figured out how to make a great thing even better, adding a little lime juice and chile powder to what is already a near-perfect food. The tart lime juice is incredibly refreshing, and a little smoky heat from the chiles brings out the crisp sweetness of the corn. For a more indulgent version, see the variation.

Steps:
- Start a charcoal fire or preheat a gas grill; the fire should be moderately hot, and the rack no more than 4 inches from the heat source. Peel back the husks of the corn without removing them and remove the silks. Smooth the husks back into place, but don't worry if they don't completely cover the kernels.
- When the grill is ready, grill the corn, turning occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes. As the ears start to brown, carefully peel back the husks. Coat the corn with the butter and return to the grill with the husks peeled back. Grill, turning occasionally, until nicely browned-some of the kernels will blacken, and that's fine-another 5 to 10 minutes.
- Squeeze lime juice on the corn, sprinkle with chile powder, and serve immediately.
- Omit the lime juice. After sprinkling with chile powder, coat with Mexican crema, or thinned sour cream, about 1 tablespoon per person, and sprinkle with grated cotija cheese, about 2 tablespoons per person.
