“What’s That Corn Stuff Called?”

I was recently asked “what’s that corn stuff called?”  Well, it’s called Elote and Dallas’ own Fuel City gas station has one of the best outside carts serving small, medium and large “Cups of Corn.”

Elote is a perfect side dish to some Pastor tacos, my personal favorite from Fuel City.

Basically Elote is corn kernels, crumbled cotija anejo cheese, cayenne pepper, mayo, chili powder, and lime juice. If you want to make your own, here is a recipe from Food Blogga.

Next time you make a stop for gas station tacos take a look around and see if there is an Elote cart to add to your culinary experience.
