To make the cacio e pepe street corn, place the shucked corn in a large pot, fill with water and bring to a boil. Simmer until bright yellow and cooked through, about 6 to 10 minutes. You could also grill the corn on a stovetop grill pan for 6 to 10 minutes. Remove from the water and allow to cool slightly before skewering with a wooden skewer.
In a shallow dish, stir together the parmesan, pecorino, black pepper and the pinch of salt until well-combined. While the corn is still warm, spread each with the mascarpone cheese and then coat with the cheese and black pepper mixture. Place on a platter and then top with more black pepper. Serve immediately.
