I like filled tamales, but I donโt really understand why so many tamales have no filling, just masa? I bought a half dozen accidentally at a grocer and I feel like I was cheated a little ๐
I made tamales from scratch because i wanted to have some laroco and lacoche ones which aren't available near me. That'll be the last time I do that, even with a stand mixer it's too much work, from on now I'll stick to the flavors i can buy for a couple bucks!
Andy you are by far my favorite but your Masa mix is too watery, also mixing by hand and not in a food processor will teach you how to feel for the consistency that you are looking
I remeber when you cooked curry goat or jerk chicken with Thai red chillis ๐ข๐ข I lived in Perth for 3 years you can never get good Caribbean food and produce in Australia I had to go online
The cool thing about discovering tamales on the internet for me is that we have something similar in my hometown it was just the sweet version. Thank God making it savory is not weird.
New Mexican here. Ive been making tamales since I was 10. Someone else mentioned to put some chile in you masa. Maybe a 1/4 a cup to give your masa some color and better flavor. Its a world of difference. Great job Chef.
I made 28 dozen mostly by myself a couple of years ago. I could only barely eat one because I'm intolerant to garlic and onion as of 2018. It was sad, but the first seven dozen were the last time I got to make them with my Mahjah before she passed away in March of 2022. I really wanted my son to experience making tamales with my Mahjah before her six different cancers took her after 10 years of fighting (I was only supposed to have her for 4-6 months when she first found out about her stage four liver cancer in March 2012). She was so strong and a medical rarity. It was nostalgic because we made them in my house, on the big kitchen table from her house, the very table we made tamales at when I was a kid. I'm a giver and had fun sharing that many delicious tamales with friends. I would like to do it again, but times have changed, and I keep to myself now. I miss her so much, but I feel her energy daily. What a blessing โจ๏ธ๐ซถ๐ฅน๐ฅฒ

Awesome! I like to take the left over braising liquid and make a tomatillo salsa with it. Or add it to the masa. Tomatillos are hard to find here in Aus… the seeds are even illegal over in WA ๐
Recipe is live on my website andy-cooks.comโ๏ธ
The inspiration for the cinnamon sweets hot tamalas.

I love tamales! ๐คค
In Colombia they put way more stuff in the masa, like rice, peas, carrots, bits of pork belly…
Let him cook
You're always chopping off so much fat in your videos do you ever render it down into oils and cooking large stuff like that with the junk fat
All that work to put some stupid bottled sauce on it.

Looked delicious! Here in San Antonio at least a lot of places add some of that cooking broth to the masa too for color and more flavor ๐
If you're going through the whole process but won't even close the tamal… dude…
Thats a lot of work chef. Not hungry anymore
It's just that easy! ๐
So much soundsq
Truly a labour of love. Thank you Chef!
