On Friday, while I was working some “elote” lady stopped by my job and asked if I wanted any elotes or esquites. I work at a liquor store in Jackson Heights so I have the privilege of eating anything with sazon around here. There are a lot of Hispanic restaurants around here. Elote is corn. I felt like I had to try the esquites because I have heard of them but never tried them. I know many who talk beautiful things about it and how it is so good and I cannot wait to go around your job to have one of those. Esquites is grained and boiled corn then sautéed in butter and onions. Esquites are served with mayo, salt, lime, cheese and chili powder. I always though esquites were dry corn served with mayo and cheese, at least that’s how I saw it on pictures. Honestly, I was not thrilled by it. I felt the corn snack was too liquidly and the mayo and cheese just didn’t go with the water. Also I could taste a lot of onion. I am glad I only had the $2.50 cup because I would not have finished the $5 cup of esquite. I feel that maybe it does taste good but this was one was not prepared the way I was expecting it. Hopefully next time I do have another esquite its how I imagined it if not, I will not ever have one again.
