My mother would add the olives in the meat, and add extra achiote in the meat mix, then use the juice of meat to put a layer on the parchment paper, that cuts extra work time

[@kaygarbett7857]

My dad who just passed away, made pasteles every Christmas while I was growing up, he used to dice up potatoes and add to meat mixture along with Spanish olives. He used to wrap the pasteles in foil and they were delish! Love your video, I plan to make them this year. My first year!!! Thank you!

[@conishkee]

It wasn't until last year when I made pasteles that I used my Oster food processor for the very first time to make masa. I tried once with my regular blender, but the masa came out watery. Not good, ugh! Anyway, all the years before that, I had done it the old fashioned way by grating it by hand. Can you imagine? Yeah, it's old fashioned, but that's how I was taught and it was the basic reality of how masa was born. It's was very time consuming and tedious, but that's how you did it. (My mom and dad had a restaurant in Brooklyn, NY back in the day and I helped a lot in the kitchen making them.) Now that I know my food processor works BIG time, it cuts corners like you wouldn't believe. I wish my mom were still here so I can show her the "easier" way of making masa. I no longer wait for just the holidays to make pasteles, because the time consuming elements have been cut out and so I can make and eat them anytime I want. Besides, time waits for no one, so if it's something you enjoy, why wait for the holidays? Make them now and enjoy...TAA-DAA!!

[@bennysoto1686]

conishkee when the masa is too thin you can add a couple of platanos to create the consistency you’re looking for, just be careful not to use too many it can make the masa hard

[@FatPanda_]

No way, the most time consuming part is pealing the bananas 😂. Doing a big batch and pealing 2 boxes of bananas is the worst lol, but the payoff is worth it

[@conishkee]

@@bennysoto1686 Good advice. Thanks!

[@conishkee]

@@FatPanda_ You've got that right, but there's an easy way by placing your bananas in the sink and covering them in hot water for about 10 minutes, and wella, easy as pie to peel them. Try it!

[@florencebanuchi2612]

Try the champion mast rather juicier machine. It’s a zip to use in few minutes . Using my machine for 25 yrs.

[@barbrywilliams3135]

I did an half and half. I followed your recipe for the pork, but substituted the wrap recipe with a corn meal dough. 🥰We’re a quad-racial family (black American/Trini and Puerto Rican/Dominican). The dish was delightful and tasty. My family enjoyed the infusion 👍🏾

[@CarmenPerez-ur3os]

With Corn Meal doe , they are called Tamales not PR Rican Pasteles, a lot of So American,Cubans & Mexicans use Corn Meal, I like them too especially if they are picante with (hot chilly sauce)

[@babyclouddelia]

You have some of the best and careful explanations of how to make our traditional dishes. This is the best instructional I have seen on how to make our Puerto Rican pasteles. Beautifully done!

[@fishermenmike47]

Freakin rican pasteles are off the chain, I did his recipe and my pasteles are off the hook, thanks my brother

[@losmedinas1859]

His recipe calls for 8 bags of bananas, how many is that ?

[@florq8218]

THE BEST COOKING CHANNEL I HAD SEEING SO FAR, I LOVE IT. ..VERY CLEAN ,NICE SMILE, VERY PATIENCE SIMPLE THE BEST 😘💕💕💕🌹

[@patsyhearn5842]

Born and raised in Puerto Rican family in Hawaii and never made gandule rice until now with your recipe. Turned out perfect. You are the best.

[@deedeeotero4475]

I’m Sicilian, love all Latin foods but I have to say pasteles are more work then home made ravioli or manicotti but your recipe looks soooo delicious I’m gonna make these. Wish you could open a restaurant in Chicago where I live, we’d be there every other day!!!😂😋😋😋💖🇵🇷💖🇮🇹💖💋

[@wellaramalho8847]

Aloha!!! I absolutely love watching your videos. Thank you so much to you & your mom. Don't stop keep it going!!!! Mahalo

[@margaretkennedy9719]

I would love to see your meals in the frozen food section. As a Puerto Rican I know your foods are delicious and it would be great to have them readily available to me.

[@Thefreakinricanrestaurant]

So cute. I would love that too. #goals. Thanks for the love

[@lalucyx369]

Omg yes please!!

[@lalucyx369]

Id buy everyday 💓

[@normanmarino7871]

I am not Puerto Rican, but I love the food and have made it myself. Pastels are the best when made using real banana leafs not the paper to rap them. My Puerto Rican friends moms or grandmothers made then at Xmas and they would always give me some but I moved and I lost my supply so I had to make them myself. I still have some banana leafs in my freezer so I will try your recipe. I have been to PR 7 times starting in the 60s and the food was great in San Juan, but the last time I was there 2014 it was almost impossible to find Puerto Rican food. How sad is that! Thanks for keeping the food alive.

[@justice316]

I wish I was there too, so I can help you eat these pasteles. You’re making me hungry 😋

[@chanceDdog2009]

Im not Puerto Rican, but love the food and have learned much from this channel. I tend to put my own twist on the recipes, depending on what ingredients we have at home.

[@polymorphism1966]

Just love your channel and food, Born and raised in NYC but living in North Carolina for the past 7 years. I’m hoping I can order your pastelles in February

[@RicardoGonzalez-fb9li]

DAMN, I love your channel. I feel like I've watched your videos so much that visiting the restaurant would be like visiting family! In all seriousness, I tackled my first round of pasteles yesterday for the first time in my life, and I nearly cried I was so happy. I'm vegetarian, so finding the right recipe for filling was a challenge. That said, I found a recipe and came back to this video to enhance the other recipe. Plus, there's no beating your tutorials and techniques. Thank you so much for your generosity and for sharing your love of Puerto Rican food. Much amor y gratitud desde Joliet, IL, brother.

[@CarmenPerez-ur3os]

Ricardo Gonzalez, I hv Vegeterians & Vegans in the Family, tried a few ways for the filling, the best one, if You like Gandules (Pigeon Peas) guisados with little pieces of potatoes, try with that, it's the way My daughter loves them, use some of the caldo of the Gandules for the Masa (doe) You can boil a Vegetable cube or powder in a cup of water to give more taste to the Gandules & Masa. Bon Apetit. From Newark, NJ

[@CarmenPerez-ur3os]

P

[@Thefreakinricanrestaurant]

Ricardo - thank you soooo much for your kind words and for sharing you experience! It makes me so happy that you are cooking AND having fun! It's all about the food and sharing it with the people you love. Dios te bendiga brother!

[@ILoveUSA73]

I love your videos! So Puerto Rican authentic. I have been afraid to do pasteles because it looks so complicated but you made it so simple, easy, and fun. Your beautiful smile and "and just like that" has inspired me to do pasteles. :-)

[@Odettesharesherheart]

My grandmother taught me to tie them back to back 2 at a time.

[@Thefreakinricanrestaurant]

+Odettesharesherheart Yes I tie them separate. But almost everyone ties them by 2's. Thank you for watching the videos.

[@conishkee]

The ones that I tie back to back are the ones that have chili in them. Easier to decipher which is which.

[@GreatDayEveryone]

Odettesharesherheart mine too!!!

[@moms1place]

That's how we do it

[@user-rk5jd9kv9v]

My mom, tied them up the same way! Fondest memories of parchment paper oiled w/achote oil! Great kitchen aromas!

[@m.v.1230]

Trow two thru the screen, that is making me crave them right now. The pastel looks delicious! The tutorial was beautifully done. Thank you for doing such a beautiful job of keeping Boricua cooking traditions alive. God bless.

[@TheJarheadwife]

You make it look so easy, lol. I make my own pasteles every year too but I've never put my sofrito in to the masa. I'm going to try that trick this year. I also love that machine you use and I'm going to see if I can convince my husband to buy it for me for Christmas. My knuckles can't take anymore grating, lol. Thanks for posting all these wonderful videos.

[@bklyntigresa9053]

+Barb Justiniano You can also use a food processor. My friend uses her blender but that's her lol

[@rollingthunder7258]

digo el sazon de nuestras Madres Puertorriquenas es SUPER SABROSO, me encanta es incomparable, ME ENCANTA

[@carmenpr4u]

I love your face expression when you taste the food. Love your videos. Muchos exitos boricua 🇵🇷

[@user-rk5jd9kv9v]

I ❤️ your channel which celebrates our Boriqua 🇵🇷 heritage!! Your pasteles are savory reminders of holiday celebrations, but which should be enjoyed more often, since pasteles are truly a culinary delight! I hope to visit your restaurant in the near future since I’m in the mood for pasteles! 😉 Felicidades! ❤️😘

[@EmmySantiago-wz1hj]

It looks delicious I make my definitely than that in the mix of the Green bananas and yautia we also put in Spanish pumpkin and a can of carnation milk adobo and the juices of the meat broth and salt and we also wrap the paper with the plantain leaves and all the things you did we just wrap it way different than you just did it and everybody does it differently and always it comes out the same way at the long run thank you for sharing your way of making of making Pasteles enjoy your Sunday and GB 🙏🌹

[@cherylmorales2868]

Thank you! You always make it so easy to make and look so delicious. Mine turned out great. I have made these for years but was always looking to see them made. I am Native American from Montana married to a Puerto Rican and we have five children who love Puerto Rican food. I am a pretty good cook but always looking to perfect with that Puerto Rican flavor. My husband says I am a Puerto Rican at heart, I love his foods and cook it all the time.

[@silkbod343]

Thank you soooooo much Freakin’ Rican. I bought your recommended machine and am now making amazing Rican Pasteles. Love ya Bro’ you’re killing it. Please keep the boricua recipes together. I want to go eat at your restaurant. I’m going to look into that. Xoxo and God Bless you.

[@margariteolmos3457]

Your sofrito is fantastic. I ordered some so I can now make good PR food in northern California! Gracias.

[@Thefreakinricanrestaurant]

+Margarite Olmos Yes , We received the order. You will be receiving it this week. Thank you so much. And yes all your food will taste absolutely fabulous . I love you for following!

[@mariacaleb8995]

I used to help my aunt to make pasteles and I remember that we would saute the fatback and ham. Then we would add the Sofrito and tomato sauce. After about 10 minutes we would add the pernil. Then add the rest of your ingredients and let it cook. DELICIOUS!!!

[@MRuiz-wt9gn]

I so Love our culture, so beautiful, we cook with Love right!

[@lissetteburgos8864]

I can’t wait to visit your restaurant!!! You’re so thorough!!!! I can smell it through my phone lol

[@Boricua50ify]

In a much larger pot my mother and grandmothers would cook the tosino/fat back first. Remove/put aside then in the rendered oil from tosino cook the ham and remove/ put aside then add the sofrito, etc. then put ham/tosino back in then add/brown the pork and so on. That’s how I learned to do it and continue till today. It takes time and the end result is delicious. I’m sure for the video purpose, throwing everything in at once was easier 🤷🏽‍♀️

[@silverpleiades1]

My mother would have loved that grating machine. As a child, I watched her make pasteles the old fashioned way, using the dreaded box grater method. It took forever. I made them once using the same method and then I swore that I would never make them again. It was too labor intensive. I love your video; you make pasteles like my mom, minus the box grater. lol

[@fishermenmike47]

You have to love to cook, to do all our boricua dishes, learning more each day

[@frfsolrac77]

It’s interesting noting the subtle differences in how each house makes their pasteles. Buen provecho!

[@billy18773]

That machine is a blessing bro

[@JAMAEL89]

Bro all the people in my life have passed away. Your menthod is the best I've seen. Thank you.

[@qtpyelk]

Your the only one I’ve seen so far that makes them almost as my Aunt. Haven’t had them in ages she had moved to Florida than back to PR than back to Florida she comes up by us at the end of July praying that we makes them since she will be here for about two weeks 😁. I’m gonna try to do them by myself with your recipe and surprise her. Thanks much for your recipe.

[@zapata729]

Thank you so much for this! Married into a Puerto Rican family so this was perfect! They loved it! It's so delicious!

[@Tinyoak2]

My husband is Puerto Rican from Brooklyn. I am from the Midwest and before meeting him I had never even heard of a Puerto Rican ( no offense). My point? i was/am a clean slate for learning. His mom sends Pasteles in time for Thanksgiving and given her health these days she doesn't get to visit a lot ( we now live in Michigan and she is still in NY). So here I am learning this. It took me 27 years before even trying because most of his female cousins say it is complicated. Today I decided this man and our kids deserve more cultural food from his side too, so you just volenteered as my cookbook. i had to order the papers and the banana leaves and got lucky with the rest, but today i wrapped up 3 dozen and of course 6 of them never made it to the freezer between my husband and kids. granted the wrapping will take practice ( I had a few different sizes and some filling squeezed out the side a bit) but the tastes was as close as I think I am going to get to his mother's. Thank you for making it not as complicated as I was told.

[@Thefreakinricanrestaurant]

Aww thank you so much for your story, this is why I do what I do. How fantastic that you are willing to learn for your family. They are fortunate to have you. Thank you for making a part of these special moments.

Wow!!! That looks delicious!!! Thanks for sharing. I've never made pasteles, my mom and grandma use to make them. I was always intimidated by all the work, but I think I will try this recipe over the weekend. I would also like to buy that machine. Thank you again.
