Thank you so much I actually made tamales 🫔 and I shooed prepared an cook 👩🏻‍🍳 all by myself 🙏🏽 Your instructions are understanding and I like the fact that you do not Rush during your preparation If I only knew how to post a picture of my preparation I would post it so you an your subscribers can see. I’m 65 years old 🙏🏽an never thought 💭 I would be able to tackle this task! My mom every year would have me in kitchen when she was preparing everything. An me a young 12 year old girl 👧🏽!!! Pretend to listen. I paid attention maybe just a little Now at my old age I promised my mo(RIP) that I would do everything she tried to teach me!🙁an I only took it for granted 😔 I now know I should of listened an pay close attention! So if any young woman ladies out there an read my comment! An your mom 👵🏼 is still with you 🙏🏽pay attention no matter how old you are🙏🏽

@chicanitajaquez2678 such a beautiful story 😍. Thank you!

[@rosecosio-clark3095]

Making them with my grandma and mom, grandma always added one penny to the bottom of the steamer. If you hear the penny rattle, you know that there is plenty of water. If you don't hear a rattle, it means it's getting dry, and time to add water. I make these every year for family and friends! Thanks for your tips!

[@olgaharrell3176]

I was wondering how I'd know since you cant see the bottom. I think I'll see how many cups of water it takes to keep it Under the steamer thingy so they dont get wet. Maybe I'll add a quarter for inflation 😉 Hahaha 😂

[@TeresaValenzuela-eg9dx]

Imagine where that penny has been before entering your food lol

[@custerranch]

Thank you! Stealing her penny idea!

Made them for the first time last year in memory of my hermana who I lost last year to covid. She made them every year. Will try this recipe . Gracias.

Years ago when my family was struggling with having enough food I would make these. When I was 15 my hispanic neighbors showed me how to make them with any meat type. 3 adults and 5 kids all boys tamales helped us get through scarcity. Only difference is we used ancho chilies and red ones . Would end up making like 300 at a time but we would freeze the extras . Am thankful for the knowledge they passed an we all still love homemade tamales!

[@rosiemartinez1491]

Your tamales look delicious ,I make mine using fresh masa . You should have mentioned , that you can freeze them raw , a dozen at a time and store them in a gallon size freezer baggie . So when you feel like eating tamales , just steam them frozen , it will take longer to cook , maybe a half hour more. They will taste like you just made them that day .😋

[@dizziechef9502]

I didn’t know this. I usually freeze mine cooked then oven bake at 350 for 20 to 25 min . I’ll sure try to freeze raw next time. Ty

[@lolitabonita08]

question... i want to use fresh masa but how do i prepare it... I want to be sure that what i put on it is what i want and it is just right. any tips? thanks

[@GrannyZellmer]

Thank you for that advice, I was wondering about that.

[@Whatthefudgeballs]

I made these for the first time on Christmas Eve with my sisters. We made about 130 tamales which took us about 6 hours since it was only 3 of us preparing them. We made small balls of masa and used a tortillera to spread the masa on the corn husk. They turned out amazing! I definitely recommend this recipe. Thank you!

[@mattsmom1208]

Did you double or triple the recipe? Any changes to the recipe?

[@evanking920]

This is like being in a great Culinary class. I won't order Tamales for the holidays, I'll make them. Thanks a million.

[@christinegalvan9295]

These tamales are so good!! The taste is just right. They’re soft and tasty. They’re not greasy nor tough and dry. The sweet taste of the Ancho Chile was new to us but it was still good. You must try these tamales!!!

[@amyrose3283]

I grew up with the tamale tradition every holiday with my family and relatives. I live in a different city now and made them for the first time by MYSELF. It is a very long and exhausting process (no wonder we always had about 10 of us helping!). Homemade is totally worth it and so much better than store bought. Can't wait to make tamales this Christmas!

[@reginahernandez6961]

Same and this Christmas is my first time making them by myself if they come out good it will be a Christmas tradition like it was for me growing up

[@emmawhite9892]

Made these last night for my family! They came out so good my family is now asking that we make it a tradition ❤️❤️

[@frankm5222]

I made this recipe yesterday am very pleased with the results. To get more corn flavor from the masa I added about a cup of frozen corn finely ground in the food processor. It really added some sweet corn flavor to the tamales that was missing from the last batch I made.

[@samg461a]

I’m Canadian and have never had tamales. I saw corn husks at my local exotic foods store and I’m going to go back to buy some. I can’t wait to try my first tamale!

[@trueleyes]

Of all the videos I have seen on KZbin you are the FIRST to show how to close Both ends of the Tamale like my grandmother taught me as a small boy. I have seen one maker of Tamales use a fold and tie method which is OK but so time-consuming compared to you and my Grandma which is the best and fastest still doing an excellent job. thank you for our video.

[@MostlyCloudy]

My abuela always made that cumin and garlic paste, it is absolutely necessary in my tamales now. Great job!

[@GrannyZellmer]

I wanted to say thank you for doing this video, a big help for the first time I ever made tamales, everyone loved them.

[@reginapacheco2521]

I made these with my daughter for Christmas. I used to be part of the family tamale assembly line as a child, but this was my first time making tamales from beginning to end on my own. I am half Mexican (the half that has my heart!), but due to family situations the recipes did not always come down the line. My mom was so pleased that I was making them and my daughter told me that the house smelled like Christmas when she woke up and the corn masa was in the air. We were so happy we made another batch for New Year's Day! Thank you so much for sharing your talent and recipes. You have helped me restore a family tradition.

[@jameslenaburg4378]

My wife (an excellent cook of several "world cuisines") had never made these before but did this weekend. She knows how much I like them and was a bit hesitant at the daunting task to say the least. Well, if I could upload the picture she took of the first one she "broke" in half like you do at the start of your Lesson, I know you'd be proud. They are the best I've ever tasted and she is so happy with them, too, (she's never been a big fan of Mexican cuisine, actually) she is promising to make them as our Neighborhood-Christmas-gifts next year! Bravo, Rossana! (Today she's going to make your Mexican Rice to go with the leftovers that we aren't freezing for later).

[@VillaCocina]

Thanks for sharing!!!! Feeling proud!

[@abelcarrillo3320]

Gracias' for the pork tamales recipe, my mother used to sell hundreds of dozens. Very similar to yours, but she used to put the molcajete upside down on the bottom of the pot and stacked the tamales in a vertical angle leaning against the molcajete to cook evenly, and prevent flattening. Love your cooking!

[@MrsCrustyMuffin]

OMG!!!! I moved from TX to Oregon & I can’t find tamales anywhere! This recipe took me back to my childhood! Thank you so much for posting & sharing!

I made these last night and they were 🔥I did not make the garlic paste with whole cumin in the molcajete and it still came out delicious. I omitted the Chile de árbol (I made 2 different salsas for hot preference ). Also, I did have to add more cumin (I wanted a more powerful and stronger taste) and I also added chicken bouillon after the sauce was made (after the taste test).

@@VillaCocina I used your exact recipe with my homegrown Poblano's dried for the Ancho's and my mirasol's dried for the guajillo's. My home growns were a little hotter and not quite as smoky but still very good. I did not add the chiles de arbol since I had some heat already. I think the climate I am growing them in has a lot to do with it. It's a moist heat here in Kansas, not a dry one. I used half of a pork butt for the meat. Your recipe is fantastic and I am very happy with the results. I do need to get a little better at assembling the tamale but since they are so good I will have more practice coming soon!

[@AnAbortiveRomance]

I have yet to see a tamale recipe done like the older Mexican ladies I grew up around that made the best tamales ever. It's a textural things. All the best tamales I've had the meat wasn't shredded into nothing, cat hair balls as I call it, lol, it was cut into small cubes and retained it's shape, instead of falling apart. I know most people do the fork shredded thing. It's much easier that way. But cutting the meat into small cubes produces a much better tamale taste and texture wise imo. I really wish I'd have asked Sally, our Mexican neighbor to show me how she made her tamales when I was a teenager. Best Tamales ever, you couldn't shove them into your mouth fast enough. We tried several times, and they were good, but never at Sally's level. Hers actually had a gravy around the cubed meat that didn't get absorbed into the masa after cooking. I tried everything I could think of, but could never duplicate that quality.

I'm doing this by myself and have already prepared the meat in the sauce one day ahead. It was important for me to find a video that showed the consistency of the meat in the sauce (how thick or watery) and of the masa and I found it in this video. I'm very much a visual learner.
