Elote Dip Variations

For heat – Try spicy/hot sausage or chorizo sausage, or serve with hot sauce. 

Sprinkle on Cotija or Queso Fresco cheese. 

A bright garnish for this dip is pico de Gallo and green chiles.

We recommend using canned corn and, specifically (if you like heat) the roasted corn that includes red peppers. It already has some good flavor built right in.

As a note, fresh corn (if you have some leftovers from a recipe) or drained frozen corn all work fine. 

A substitute for Tajin is chili powder.

What to serve with TikTok Corn Dip. 

Tortilla Chips – While homemade tortilla chips are always the best, make sure to use a thick chip for this dip. It’s fairly heavy and needs a substantial chip to hold the weight.
