3 minutes in the microwave, 2-3 minutes charring up, So let's call it 5 minutes. Ya can't beat that folks. Have a great weekend! Make some Mexican this weekend why don't ya?

Looks fantastic. I love sumac. For those that don't know, missing kernels is caused by lack of pollination. Each corn silk in the tassel is responsible for 1 kernel. For each silk to produce a kernel, it has to get its own piece of pollen on it. Corn pollen is usually carried by the wind in fields of corn. Sometimes the pollen saturation is really good and pollen will stick to each and every silk and sometimes it doesn't.

Nice elote brotha, next time soak them in water for about 15-20 minutes with the husk on then pop them in the microwave or the pit... The water creates better steam... Just saying, that's how I grew up eating them over an open flame of mesquite👍👍🌽🌽

Yep. It’s official. I’ve never gotten so sucked into a video about corn. Great job, man, that looked amazing. Thanks for doing the research.

Great job brother. I’m a fan 👍

My ex’s grandmother is from Ensenada and she adds minced garlic, lime, cilantro, salt and pepper to the mayo. Brushes with butter as you did, then adds the mayo mixture then crumbled queso fresco. Unbelievably tasty!

Dude, every time I watch your videos the production quality is off the hook. Amazing stuff bud, really well done

I just made this on a whim this afternoon.... this is a game changer for my weeknights when I need a healthy delicious veggie that isn't that same ol same ol. you're a kitchen lifesaver as always!

Great job on the Elote Steve! I love corn done this way.

Thank you for your videos!! I hope your staying safe and your food looks amazing!!❤️

Brings back memories. Love it.

Field corn for parching and sweet corn for steaming or roasting in Summer,are of course different things. The old favorite sweet corn was a variety called Silver Queen. Now super sweet varieties have been developed by the Ag departments at many of the games Universities in America. White sweet corn makes up a lot of the best eating strains.Even if you do not garden it is a revelation to look through old line seed catalogs in Winter/Spring. Such as Burgess, Ferry Morse and Burpee. Others too.) I like sweet 'corns' (cobs) with butter, salt and black pepper. But this Mexican variation looks fantastic!

So glad I stumbled upon your channel! It's such a pleasure to watch you cook....so easy on the eyes and you provide really great information. Looking forward to seeing more 😀😊😉

The presentation is absolutely gorgeous! You're a wicked wizard of making food not only taste delicious, but look delicious as well. Bravo!

Another solid ep, my man. Congratulations on the shoutout...and the 2k...I’m everything

This, like all your others, was amazing. Not only delicious, but the presentation was beautiful. Thank you Stephen, keep posting please!

That's the best looking street corn I ever seen. Again man love the production! thumbs up!

This was awesome!! Love your video great quality and love the tips for making elote!! Delish!

I love the way you made this... I can't wait to try. I love it....Keep up the great work, you got this!!!!!

So glad I found this before I go shopping tomorrow to make elotes for football! I had NO idea what to look for when buying corn so thanks! Also I'm gonna try your recipe and also grill some and see what people like more! The braiding is so awesome and adds such an awesome touch to presentation!! Thanks for the video I just subbed bc I like your vibe

Incomplete pollination is the reason for spotty kernel production.

Man you rocked the CORN,...Love your channel.

Freak'n amazing Steve, you make something so smile into art brother! Good stuff!

Just a suggestion, but McCormick actually makes a lime flavored mayo that is similar to the style of mayo that’s widely used in Mexico. That way you can have the lime flavor without the mess of a fresh squeeze of lime on top

This channel is awesome man I can't wait till you go mainstream

This is all my friend wants to eat for her birthday but I don't have a grill so thanks for this.

I'm so glad you shared your research! This saved me a lot of time, and I wanted to know how it's authentically done! Well done 🙌🏿✌🏿🙏🏿

Found you on #NoSmallCreator and my husband and I really dig what you're doing! AND, now I'm very hungry. Lol. Seriously, though, great approach and great channel!

Your channel is great. It's a winner. I am a vegan, but I still watch your videos. Well done, sir!

Made it. Loved it! Going to make it again!

Love it! Thx

I will definitely make it this weekend!

I’m so glad I saw your comment in another video and decided to click on your channel. Amazing quality production and amazing food.

Excellent! Looks awesome!

Looks delicious Steve. Thanks for doing the research for us :)

Lol damn dude you're so smooth and relaxed 😆

So, so good! Love the sumac!

I agree with you that painting it with a light coat of the mayo is way better than most of the other builds where they slop it on so thick, that's all you're gonna taste!

Holy Mac-a-Roni that was awesome!! We found a salt substitute. Will see if I can find that kind of cheese. Hopefully it isn’t high in sodium. Love how you used the husk as well to be decorating & useful all in one! 👍

I’m making this for cinco de Mayo today! 😋

It seems you really enjoyed that corn! Gonna try this soon now that they are in season.

Great video AND presenter!! Looks bomb! Can’t wait to try!

Dude….that looks fantastic 🙌🏽

Love that you left in the shots where you turned off the lights for photography😁🌽

Wow! Looking Good! Can't wait for more videos.

best place i've had decent corn was in my mom's backyard when she attained some organic corn seeds from Laos.

The corn on the cob looks so delicious.

Perfection!

Great info. Nothing like authentic

Bangin bro I love elotes

I'd had both, with mayo and with Mexican crema. I hate the mayo version but LOVE the Mexican crema version. Do exactly what you did in this recipe, but just sub in the crema instead of mayo. It's amazing.

Looks soooo delicious ❤🙏

Dope dope dope.. dope brother. Well done.

Your product photography is awesome. I really need to up my game like this when highlighting my woodworking too.

How long did you broil it?

Never heard of sumac; I'll look into it, though. I will be making this. I've had this but, they put too much mayo and that was all I tasted. I loved your explanation. And I always love when you turn off the lights, climb, and take that perfect picture. Love it.

Another great video! Keep it up :)

Looked awesome! Miss the grill though;)

DAAANNNNG THAT LOOKS GOOD😱😱😱

Monsanto is making the corn better for all of us.

Make it off the cob too... that tastes even better in my opinion... holding the corn by the husk is pretty cool though...

hahaha thats bc.. thats how they do it haha that was great. Awesome looking turn out

Does the lime juice go into the Mayo/butter mix?

Ended up here after watching babybackmaniacs video. Looking forward to binge watching your videos. New subscriber here!

Had to learn how to french braid before completing this.

The way you cook reminds me of how I cook lol

I love you !! your amazing I love all your food ❤❤💋💋💋

well done!

Hot dayum I love it when.your videis pop up in my recommendations.

Great video once again! Now I need to go to a street fair. BTW: Some of the best corn comes from New Jersey.

Any alternative if I do not have microwave

Loved the video Steve I just got a new way to enjoy my 🌽 Thanks man

I can’t believe I wasn’t subbed , sorry Steve ! Better late than never....lol

I just made these. Holy shit, 10/10!

I tried to grill/broil corn on a cob a couple times, but it turned out quite dry to my taste. Has anybody tried to boil it first?

wow

what kind of cheese is this?

The silk are conduits for gametes to travel through to fertilize the corn. Each strand is for one only kernel. Corn pollen is distributed by wind. Wind blows and the corn fornicate in it. Sometimes a few of the strands never get a date and they must face the shame thereafter of a naked cob. The pollen is voluminous and often each strand of the corn's flower gets a pollen grain of it's dreams and the krib fills all the way to the top. But when you see a half barren cob of corn, it probably was due to too much rainy weather knocking the pollen out of the air on date night. Or that the stalks may have been planted too far apart or your cob grew up on the edge of the field and is therefore a hilly billy corn with snaggle teeth. Although feed corn experienced GMO disaster with Starlink and birds that are some died. Not good) It was due to bad kierality. The kierality of life is all about how everything living on Earth is left handed. Weird but true) But the square balled nerds at Monsanto who can't jerk straight, reinvented cold fusion or something after drinking twenty dollar Fighting Cock bourbon one day. Or something) And they assembled monster corn and it escaped on the wind (that they should have known about now.) and Frankensteined all the neighborhood organic farmers fields. Booo

we ate it in restaurant in Las Vegas, it was DELICIOUS! But it feels like they used Mexican cream, not mayo

cooking corn by boiled water with 1 or 2 epazote leaf ... then tell me how the taste is

ONE PIECE what are you a monk?!?!?! ;)

Here from Justin’s channel

Missing kernels are because of lack of pollination. Each one of the silk strands correlates to an individual kernel. If that particular strand doesn’t receive pollen, the kernel won’t develop. Missing kernels means missing pollination which probably means missing pollinators.

Lack of kernels at the top isn't a GMO thing, it's a pollination thing. Growing corn is a crapshoot, sometimes. You'll have a lot more problems growing organic corn in the home garden then you'll find with GMO corn in the supermarket. (I'm a gardener and have frequently failed at growing organic corn.)

where do you get your coke?

It is very hard to grow corn without insecticides because of corn earworms. It would be better to peel back the husks, de-silk, wash or even soak, then fold the cleaned husks back over the ears. You can then microwave and carry on as in the video.

GMOs are why food like corn is even edible to begin with!

Killer!

I would say something tho I’ve seen a lot of people use takin not spices

Written recipe plz

what do you know about a french braid too cute lol

I ate a handful of popcorn on my way out the door to work, and I still have some of it stuck in my teeth. Major pain in the...

I love you ❤

😂cuz that’s how they did it in Mexico😂

Do you have a P.O. box????????

I am a litlle late today

moisten my husk

When possible use white corn! Yellow corn just has a different, sweeter flavor. My Mexican family has always rejected elotes with yellow corn.

This video is making me think of a not so appropriate song.

Corn was actually genetically modified by humans hundreds of thousands of years ago by selective breeding and originally corn usually only had a couple kernels per ear
