Rick Makes Pork Tamales | From the Test Kitchen | Bon Appétit

Join Rick Martinez in the Bon Appétit Test Kitchen as he makes pork tamales. You can make masa, a dough made from ground corn, in two ways: instant and fresh. Fresh yielded the best corn flavor and best texture, but you can use corn masa flour too, which is easier to find. You can find fresh masa and dried corn husks at tortilla stores/factories, international sections at larger stores, or online. Whichever masa you choose, be sure to save some of the chile purée from the pork filling.

I'm assuming that's how Rick enters the test kitchen every day.

THE INTRO THAT RICK DESERVES AT THE MINIMUM

[@krynplucker]

Before my grandma would dread making tamales and demanded everybody come over to help her but now since she got a kitchen aid stand mixer she’s all chingona and makes them by herself. 😂

WE NEED A MEXICAN/HISPANIC FOOD SHOW STARRING RICK AND GABY

[@leahmurphy6869]

Starting to wonder if Rick is sponsored by Corn Nuts 🤔

[@andreaflores4651]

Everyone's grandma watching this is like: that's not how I do it.

Rick is going off. 3 straight days of content.

Me and my mom use to make tamales once a year it was an event we dedicate several days on the making on day one we prepare the guisos and some the husk the next day we start ensamble them we made a lot of varieties chicken ,pork, deer, char with cream cheese and chicken, cheese with jalapeño,beans and with cheese we ate that day and froze the rest and if want to eat tamales just take them out of the freezer and cook them it my mom passed away but I'm gonna continue the tradition

It takes a brave soul to cook in an all white outfit 💪

still waiting for Rick’s refried bean recipe...

Rick: Makes a mess

[@Mr6Sinner]

Gaby’s full-mouth “omg that so good” followed by a shy “can I have another one” was probably the best part of this episode

[@MisterNohbdy]

"Do I need a spoon?"

Brad: Who ordered all of these corn nuts and lard

[@Ali-lm7uw]

The intro was underwhelming, next time we need a grander entrance.

Brad: allicin

When is Sohla going to start dazzling us with her mom’s lamb biryani recipe? (No substitutes will be accepted.)

[@ms.lilith8905]

Omg thank you for posting! My mother-in-law was supposed to come over this thanksgiving and teach me to do it on my own but she was in a horrific car accident 6 months ago and passed away. Ive always helped make them and last year she came over and made them at my apartment but this year I was going to write it all down as she supervised me. I wanted to write her recipe down because most Mexican family recipes are not written down. We all miss her so much. This is our first holidays without her. I need to go out and buy all the supplies and ingredients in a few weeks. If it turns out well I will teach my 19 year old son.

[@kellybartholomew2293]

Sohla's realization that she has been making tamales wrong this entire time, is such a effing mood.
