Ingredients
- 4 ears of fresh corn on the cob
- 2 tablespoons cannabis-infused olive oil
- 1 teaspoon chili powder
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup cotija cheese, crumbled
- 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh cilantro, chopped
Going Step by Step
- Preheat your grill to medium-high heat.
- In a small bowl, combine cannabis-infused olive oil, chili powder, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
- Peel back the husks of the corn, but keep them attached. Remove the corn silk.
- Brush each ear of corn with the cannabis-infused spice mixture, making sure to coat all sides evenly.
- Place the corn on the grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until nicely charred.
- In the meantime, prepare the cotija cheese sauce. In a separate bowl, mix together mayonnaise, sour cream, cotija cheese, lime juice, and cilantro until well combined.
- Once the corn is grilled to perfection, remove from the heat and let it cool slightly.
- Using a brush or spoon, generously coat each ear of corn with the cotija cheese sauce.
- Serve your Elevated Elote immediately, garnished with additional cotija cheese and cilantro if desired.
- Give it a try and enjoy!
Tips
- For an extra kick, sprinkle some cayenne pepper or hot sauce on top of your Elevated Elote.
- If you prefer a milder flavor, reduce the amount of chili powder or omit it altogether.
- Make sure to soak the corn in water for a few minutes before grilling to prevent it from drying out.
- If you don’t have access to cannabis-infused olive oil, you can use regular olive oil and add your desired cannabis infusion separately.
We are sure you are a perfect cook! Nonetheless, do remember to pay attention to the amount of Elevated Elote you consume: it should always be modified based on the strength of your product and the potency you desire. Dosing homemade edibles can be tricky, so it is strongly recommended to start with one portion of a serving. After one or two hours, listen to your body and decide whether to consume more. It is not recommended to drive or operate any machinery when taking edibles. Use responsibly!
