Notes

To add a kick, add diced jalapeño and/or smoked paprika to the street corn. 
To save as leftovers, store all of the components seperately for 2-3 days in the fridge and reheat to serve. 
Let the corn cool a bit before mixing. You don't want the corn to be piping hot when you add the rest of the ingredients, as the base can separate.
