If you can’t eat just one tortilla chip, this is the salsa of your dreams. It takes the jagged crunchiness of totopos and transforms them into a nutty, saucy topping that instantly adds another dimension of savoriness to anything it’s spooned over. Think of it as the more casual cousin of salsa macha, drizzled over a cup of Mexican-style street corn that’s best eaten while standing up. In this recipe, the corn is sliced into wide sheets, drizzled with a tangy crema and mayo mixture, and topped with the crunchy salsa.
