Great video, thanks for sharing. You're so patient when teaching. I'm going to try this video next weekend. My first time trying tamales. You said it makes about 2 dozen. I'm assuming that doubling the recipe will make 4 dozen???
My Mexican momma taught me to make these at Christmas time.. very authentic recipe.
I'm 50 now and last time I made Tamales all by myself was when I was age 19 – it has been a LONG time. This looks like what I did back then so I'll follow along. ONE step at a time. Tonight, I'll just cook the pork and have that ready! THANKS
A plastic bag ?how do you keep the water from getting in the tamales. The get really wet
Thanks so much for your athletic recipe .
Hi Rosanna, I’ve always wondered what’s the purpose of cooking the red sauce along side the shredded pork and toasting the chiles. Thanks I love your videos❤
Where do I get instant corn masa ? Is it Maseca ?
Excellent Recipe 👍👏 thanks girl 👧🏻!
No plastic bag
Gracias Mija!!! (What is boneless pork butt in Mexico?)
I’m gonna try and make this for thanksgiving! I’m not gonna eat store bought tamales 🙂
You take me right back to East L.A.! Mama made the masa and the sauce, papa cooked the meat (beef, pork and chicken-all red sauce). After browning and sizzling,
Mama finished cooking the meat in a pressure cooker, there was enough to feed all 8 of us, plus family and friends as holiday gifts.
Us kids all took a job, like an assembly line, wiping the masa on the husks, shredding the meat, wrapping, first in the husks, then in sheets of thin parchment type butcher's paper.
Papa always put a healthy stash in the freezer and the paper wrapping protected the tamales from freezer burn and also helped the steaming process.
Mama steamed them to delicious goodness. She always reserved some of the masa for sweet breakfast tamales, added a little sugar to the masa, cinnamon, raisins and chopped pineapple. These we put in small husks, folded them upward all around into little tamale sacks, with thin strips of husks to make husk string to tie the tops like little bags and, into the steamer.
Ooohhhhh, so good. The memories of an old man and I remember every second of the New Year tradition in our family.
I'm making these today and am so grateful to Rosanna for sharing her recipes. My pork is cooking, my chili's are soaking and my mouth is watering just thinking about having one once I'm done! I have cooked many of your recipes and have grown and dried chili's just to use for this food. Thank you so very much!
Made them today and they loved them 😋😋 😊 TY
Oops, excuse me, my previous comment I misspelled comino
I want to try making these. I have question, if I was to use ground black pepper and ground domino, could you tell me what the amount would I use for both the meat and the sauce? Thank you
I'm only cooking for 2 this year, can I cook all the tamales and freeze the leftovers for later?
Your video inspired me to try making tamales for the first time and they turned out excellent. I live overseas and we have no Mexican Food here, so this was exactly what we needed. Thank you.
Thankyou for such an easy to follow recipe. We are making them for Thanksgiving this year and my pleasure to follow your links. Love your presentation, and LOL my husband said "a cook that doesn't skimp on the filling!" 🙂
Fantastic. Thank you.
These are the BEST tasting tamales I've found on YouTube!! Thank you soo much! ❤️
I will make some TOMORROW!!
I have made your recipe twice and let me tell you they are easy to make and delicious always a home room with my family thanks so much 💕
this is the best tamale demonstration I've ever seen, and I've seen many!
Those look good Nice and thin and full of meat.
Is there a substitute for the plastic bag cover? Trying to limit plastic exposure in the house.
Christmas is at my house this year so I've decided we're Tomales… I'm goin gto need to do a double batch of the pork and chicken because my family eats like they ain't seen food before. I've done tacos and enchiladas in the past withheld usual sides. This will be my first attempt at Tomales though.
Thank you for your post I'm going to do a single batch to try it out.
Wish me luck!
These look amazing, I will definitely be trying this recipe out at home
I LOVE tamales…
Omg thank you for the receta. I will try to make them. Blessings Amiga
I love your channel! I just found it a few weeks ago, I am half Mexican and black and you help me connect to my Hispanic side with your homemade dishes! Thank you ❤
would really look for alternative for the plastic bag! super toxic!
These tamales turned out perfect and delicious. I always wanted to learn how to make them. Thank you!!!
Added guava and provolone to totally enhance the Umami. Love your recipe and appreciate what you do. Thank you for this wonderful recipe 😊✌🏾
Why a plastic bag on top of the steam pot? No way am I going to steam plastic into my tamales….no thanks.
