Notes
- Corn flour is a brand addition, though I have omitted it here. Feel free to add 1 teaspoon.
- You can use fresh parmesan cheese or cotija cheese, but only if using right away. Use dehydrated parmesan cheese, which you can find in containers in grocery stores, for longer keeping. Or, simply omit and add the cheese when making elote.
