Elote Pickles - Elote-Style Dill Pickles
Report
Dressing up a dill pickle spear like an Elote is an easy way to elevate a classic snack. All this Elote Pickle recipe requires are dill pickle spears, crema, cotija cheese, Tajin seasoning, and dried dill.

Ingredients
- 4 large Claussen pickle spears
- 2 tablespoons crema
- 2-3 tablespoons Cotija or queso fresco cheese
- Tajín to taste (I used 2 teaspoons)
- dill weed to taste (I recommend using lightly so the Tajin shines with a dill accent)

Instructions
- Get out a sheet pan and a wire rack, placing the wire rack onto the pan. I like to prepare Elote Pickles this way for ease of cleanup.
- Remove pickle spears from the jar and lay them on top of the rack.
- Take a paper towel and dab the pickle spears dry.
- Pour some crema onto a plate. Crumble the cotija or queso fresco cheese onto a plate.
- Take a pickle spear and dip both of the “insides” of the pickle spear in the crema. Then, dip the pickle spear insides into the cotija cheese crumbles.
- Set the coated pickle spear back on the rack. Repeat with every pickle spear.
- Once all pickle spears are coated in cotija cheese, sprinkle on the Tajin seasoning, followed by the dill seasoning. I recommend starting out light on the seasoning, then increasing it as needed to suit your tastes.
- Enjoy!
