* 1 corn cob equals about ¾ cup of corn kernels. You can use frozen corn in this recipe if corn isn’t in season. Cook corn prior to making dip.
* If you’re not grilling the corn, it’s fine to simply mince fresh jalapeño peppers – you do not need to grill them.
* I found it difficult to crumble the cotija cheese, so I used the medium side of a box grater and it worked perfectly. I love my
Cuisipro 4 Sided Box Grater– it’s by far the best box grater I have used. You could also use a medium microplane. If you are unable to find cotija, you can substitute crumbled feta.
