My Very First Review
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I have made many recipes from the Food Network website and this was one I felt compelled to write a review. This corn is... just so good. I had this "street" corn at a Cuban cafe in Soho and have wanted to recreate the recipe ever since. When I saw Sunny make this, I knew it was just what I was looking for. I dont know if it's dinner or dessert, but wow. I love it - just as is in her recipe. However, the cojita (spelling?) is a great addition if you can find it. Your guests will absolutly love this!

Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I took a risk and made this for a kinda party (easy grilling and some friends over) and it was a huge hit.....people loved it... so much they even asked if they could take some home! My husband says he expects corn made like that from now on! I was so easy and so good, I will definitely make this more often! Thanks for the recipe!Read more
