Hello my beautiful fam!! Welcome back to my kitchen first of all I want to thank you for being part of our family, and allowing me to be part of yours!!!! ❤️
Today I’m going to be sharing with you how to make the BEST MASA FOR YOUR TAMALES, SO EVERY TIME you make them they come out perfect, now let me tell you the masa either makes or breaks the tamales,so you want to make sure its perfect, MOIST because nobody likes to chase a tamal with a drink yesss cafe and tamales or soda and tamales are the best combination but you dont have to take a sip every time after you take a bite of your tamal. The best way to know if you are going to have the best tamal is by making sure the masa floats, this lets you know the masa is light, airy and fluffy which means MOIST tamales! keep in mind, like every recipe and every household, are tons of variations that make this delicious recipe, you can constantly adjust it to your taste; I hope you enjoy it as much as my family and I do, and as always, if you do, please don’t forget to give me a big thumbs up, comment down below your thoughts and if you new to my channel, please hit that subscribe button so you can be part of our family!!!!!! 😘

I M P O R T A N T ⚠️
Tip!!! Feel free to use all broth from your cooked meat but keep in mind your tamales will come out very oily! If you are making queso y rajas tamales, use store brough chciken broth!
Dont want to use lard no problem, my second option is vegetable shortening
The ingredients on both maseca instant corn masa for tamales and premade masa are the SAME, taste will be almost the same, I 100% think MASECA FOR TAMALES IS THE BEST!
You can use regular maseca but for me it tastes more of a steam gordita rather than tamlaes.
If using “premade masa” for 6 lbs use 4 cups liquid, 1 1/2 lbs lard, 6 tsp baking powder and salt, ALSO MAKE SURE THE MASA ONLY HAS 2 INGREDIENTS; ground corn treated with lime, and water
What can go wrong? Adding TOO MUCH LIQUID will cause the masa to be super thin and not airy if you are scared for this, start with 1:1 ratio (for each cup of masa use 1 cup liquid) then slowly add the rest of liquid until the masa is well hydrated. If after adding 8 cups your masa dont float, this means it needs to be mixed more, continue mixing until masa is niced and whipped.
Making tamales should be fun and not intimidated or a burden so sont be scared use the tools you have and if you need to make the filling 1 day ahead!!!! for our family gatheings we make 8 lbs of masa, big shoutout to my dad because he is the one that makes us the masa 😅🤭he gets to spend family time while getting a good arm workout here is a good clip • Video MAKING TAMALES IS VERY IMPORTANT TO ME WE ARE NOT ONLY MAKING TAMALES BUT ALSO CREATING MEMORIES AS WE GATHER AROUND THE BIG BOWL OF MASA!
