Foolproof RED CHILI Tamales, a easy recipe ANYONE can make | TAMALES DE CHILE COLORADO

[@CookingConClaudia]

My beautiful family I just noticed the part of adding the baking powder was not in the video 😭 please don’t forget to add that as the baking powder is what makes the masa rise 😊❤

[@NewBeginningNewCreation]

Is this the typical tamale? I love tamales but I don’t know what is traditionally used (meat)

[@justjules6975]

You can use pork, chicken, cheese with jalapeno, some are sweet too.

[@NewBeginningNewCreation]

@@justjules6975 I understand that, thank you, I’m asking about the red ones with beef. Is Claudia using the authentic beef in this recipe?? Or are the red ones pork meat?

[@justjules6975]

@@NewBeginningNewCreation I’m pretty sure they can be whichever you prefer but the Mexican women teaching me used pork. I noticed ppl from different regions and even households tweak it how they like it. I usually use pork Boston butt. The cheese with jalapeno are my favorite though. I can’t remember what they call them.

[@justjules6975]

@ I googled it to be sure and the red chili can be beef, chicken or pork. That’s what I thought

[@tinythesavagee]

My mom never showed me how to cook- I came across your channel a few years ago and I’ve been silently watching and re creating recipes. I’m so proud of myself. Thank you Claudia. 🤍

[@zzizahacallar]

Claudia you make it look so easy. The best is your videos aren't too long. Otherwise I'd be overwhelmed

[@noriega369]

I feel the same way

[@KevinThomas-ok2ev]

One vote here for the longer format. Details are always explained better in those.

[@CookingConClaudia]

Glad you enjoy them 😊❤

[@JavierCastanon1]

I was going to comment the same, appreciate the short format. Of course I can cook, so I can skip on some details and short format works wonderful for me.

[@daisytorres2946]

Girly I would love to see your take on tamales de elote!!💖 These are some of my fav and can’t seem to find a good recipe.

[@CookingConClaudia]

I have it on here friend 😅

[@jaydd9129]

Thank you so much for this recipe you truly inspired me to make my own masa for the first time. Love your videos!! 👌🩷

[@iLoveshoPINK]

Claudia you have have such a beautiful grace for everything you cook 👩‍🍳❤️✨

[@CookingConClaudia]

Thank you beautiful 😊

[@DV3467]

Dude after years of doing tamales and watching this video, I finally got my tamale masa TO FLOAT!! 😊😂So exciting guys it really does float the more water like she said, I've always done it a little dryer I guess like were you can roll a ball, but no it should be sticky were you can't get a ball . Crazy cool thanks Claudia for your videos.. 💯

[@mema9881]

Do you know if this recipe is 4 lbs of instant masa or 4 bags of 4 lbs each of instant masa?

[@leenah9898]

It’s one 4 pound bag.

[@leedoss6905]

I'm a white Texan and people are flabbergasted I make my own tamales. Got a freezer full. Yours look fantastic.

[@maryhinson4457]

So im headed to the market. Its the first time i watched your channel and i am excited. Your directions seem spot on and super easy to follow. I will share how it worked out for me, wish me luck

[@CookingConClaudia]

Can’t wait!!!

[@maryhinson4457]

My tamales are amazing. I even achieved the float test. Thank you so very much. You were easy to follow. I think you are special, and am looking forward to pickings the next recipe.....😊😊😊

[@normadiaz6784]

The best masa I've ever made. Thanks, Claudia! Meat and sauce were perfect!

[@monicavelasquez7890]

First time making tamales and I always love Claudia’s recipes so I decided to give this one a try. It was sooo easy and it was a hit! Soooo good !!!! Thank you!!!

[@CookingConClaudia]

Makes me so happy♥️

[@girlgonewisej]

My masa NEVER floats, no matter what I do, I’ve followed your previous tamale recipes to a tee. They still come out delicious and soft!

[@ameliatownsend5742]

Same for me. Never floats, but the recipe is spot on, still come out delicious.

[@CookingConClaudia]

😅😊 ❤ that’s all that matters

[@daniellenelson8222]

my masa never floats either!

[@brendaababey]

Same !! Mine never floats 😅 I blame the altitude where I live 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@leenah9898]

I was about to give up mixing because I ran out of broth and my arm felt like it was about to fall off 😅 but she said to keep mixing and just add water until it floats, it eventually did float. The masa felt really soft and airy.

[@ShanePatterson-ne4ks]

I love tamales and these look delicious. Thanks for all the cooking videos Claudia. Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family

[@GROWNGAS]

[@Terrackhimself]

LOL that is hilarious. Claudia is always dressed like she's going to church or the club, but never gets food on her clothes... It's amazing.

[@The_Original_Big_Daddy]

I just made Tamales yesterday! I used some of your Machaca meat that was seasoned with a blend of your Salsa Roja and Salsa Verde, and I also made some green chili pulled pork. Both variants were amazing! -- Especially with your foolproof Masa recipe!

[@CookingConClaudia]

Ohhh I’m so glad you enjoyed them 😊❤

[@fitlikeaglove7396]

1:51 Nooo she didn’t strain the chile. Remember to pass your chile through a sieve y’all. It’ll take out some of the rougher skins of the chiles. This goes double if your blender isn’t super duper sharp or powerful.

[@daniellenelson8222]

she usually says strain if you need to... she has a good quality blender that she doesnt need to strain

[@MickeyV2010]

Calma te! She uses a Vitamix. In her older videos, she talks about how good it blends and she doesn’t need to strain it now that she uses a good quality blender.

@cookingconclaudia if we were to reserve some of the chile for the masa how much would you suggest without coming into issues with the masa not setting once added.

[@CookingConClaudia]

1-2 cups would be great it depends on how much you want to add, start with 1 and work your way up until it’s your desired color and flavor 😊😅 I would suggest tho to add more water when blending you don’t want the meat to be dry without sauce that’s all the flavor that goes tot he masa itself ❤

do you put water in the pot to cook or what did you do

[@melissahernandez-qt6zz]

when stacking your tamales do you add water at the bottom of the pot first?

Yes because the water steams the tamales! :)

[@edistudios]

Quick question, please someone help me. How do I use the steamer pot. I just realized that I need a specific type of steamer pot and wondering if I’m supposed to fill it to the height of the basket with water how much water do I put inside? Can someone explain that part to me?

[@CookingConClaudia]

Yes of course, your steamer pot has the steamer rack that divides the pot, you add as much water to cover the bottom of the pot without the water going to the top(steaming rack) hope this helps ☺️ the amount of water varies depending on size of pot ❤

Thank you so much! My wife and I are at Walmart buying the pot as we speak.
