- 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!
Ingredients: 36-40 tamales, depends on how much masa you spread on each corn husk
12 oz lard
6 cups instant corn masa for tamales
4 cups broth from cooked meat
3 cups warm water
1 cup chile sauce if using
5 tsp baking powder
Salt if neeeded
Corn husks
1 serving of love 💕

How many pounds of masa does 6 cups make
@@losangeles2267 45
Love tamales, the green for me are the best, can I ask you what type of lard you use?
I love how she didn’t get a single drop of anything on her lol when I make tamales I be having masa or Chile on my arms, face, hair 🤣😆 I recently found your Chanel Claudia and I love how you explain and make the recipes look so quick and easy!!
That's so funny. I wondered if anyone else had that problem or just me?!
Foreal 😂
I did it Claudia!!!! I got the masa right with my stand mixer and used your method to spread the masa like butter. It went faster than my usual attempts and my family loves them!!! Seriously delicious. You would be so proud to know how much you are helping me with Mexican style cooking!!!
Omg yessss im so proud of you!!!! Truly makes my heart very very happy ☺️ way to go 🥳 thank you beautiful for allowing g me to be part of your family! Happy Holidays to you and yours ♥️
Have you ever used a tortilla press for your tamale masa?
Thanks girl! I appreciate Claudia getting all beautiful and dressed up for her videos ❤I feel like I’m in the kitchen with my sister
Looove you 😊❤
We ❤ you!!
How much lard?
@@rango9903 12 oz. Shes included all of the ingredients in the description below the video. ✌🏻
How did you know I needed this video?!? I have made tamales the last two years and they come out tasting good, but my masa never floats and I have tried hard. Just bought the stuff and that masa is going to float this time! Thanks for being our guide and helping us bring our kitchen love to our families! You are the best and we love you!
Did it float
@@ariellev9185Mine did not float I watched the video so many times 😢
@@patty7029 Mine literally never float 😭 but everyone loves my tamales. They’re really good… but apparently my masa is never quite right :(
@@ariellev9185honestly I’ve noticed they still come out right even if they don’t float. Wouldn’t worry too much about it
Thank you, your tamales look delicious. We cook a big pot of tamales for only 45 mins to an hour and they are done beautiful and delicious. Also, if you ever want to test and see if your tamale has the taste you want, all you have to do is put a tamale in a plastic bag and put it in the microwave for 1 or 2 minutes, depending on the size and you get a perfect cooked tamale, just let it cool for about 30 to 45 seconds before you taste.
I love how you explain the different nuances to a recipe. You make a great teacher.
Claudia, Your Mexican recipes are always best. I love watching you put together these tamales. Thanks for your great video, stay connected girl!
I love how you look soo cute making the tamales! The rest of us in our pj’s looking..👀 😅❤❤
Hola Claudia. I have to honestly say, no one compares to your cooking. On you tube. You are the best cook ever. Simplicity of showing us all how to make your food. Thank you so much. Love shirley girl! From Washington state🎄❤️🙏👩🦳
Yassss WA state hello! Im from WA state too. How cool!
This video came just in time, we’re making tamales next week! I’m going grocery shopping this weekend 😊
@CookingConClaudia So far, you’re the only one I’ve found on here that has the best step-by-step video on mixing the regular Maseca for tamale dough. Just subscribed to your channel because of that. Muchimas gracias.
Perfect timing! Thank you 😊 I'm going to make them for the first time. It's the masa I worry about...I'll follow your instructions
You got this beautiful 😊❤
I had no idea this was so complex a recipe (or so many steps). Thank you for a very clear and easy-to-follow demonstration!!
I had 3 wasted attempts at making tamales. Thank you! Your recipe and instructions is the first to work. THANK YOU!
Makes me so happy ☺️♥️
I just finished making tamales and they are in the steam pot right now. My masa floated and it spread like butter!!!! Thank you so much for all your tips and tricks.
I made my first batch of tamales this weekend thanks to your videos. My masa never passed the floating test, however I got a consistency I was happy with and every single person who tried my tamales has now labeled me as the tamale guy because of how tasty they were. None of them know that my masa didn't pass the floating test so shhhh :). I made the red chili sauce ones all by myself and they came out great. It's the masa I need to work on so thank you for this video!
Hopefully you can make Chile con Carne y Tortillas (from scratch) some day! Thanks for your videos!
My tamale isn’t passing the float test either lol 😂 but I like the consistency it’s at right now so fingers crossed Que salgan bien. 🤭
Aweee well thats all that matters, if consistency is right it probably just needs more mixing ☺️
Thank you. I used the recipe on the bag for a smaller quantity and instead of melting the shortening (I have to use this because some of my family members don't eat lard for religious reasons) like it says on the bag, I whipped it like you did with the lard. Then I added more water because that ratio of liquid to masa is way off. I needed at least 3/4 cup more of water. I have yet to steam mine but I have confidence that they will steam okay.
First time on your channel. I really enjoyed your presentation. Made it easy to make my tamales. This time I’m Marin with beef/ pork . . . Then I’m making for vegetarians. So I need all the help I can get! Thank you! 🎄🎄🎄😇😇
Thank you Claudia! I'm wondering what the proportions and instructions would be if I'm using the prepared masa for this vs the flour? Thank you!
I plan on making tamales for the first time. The only way I have the confidence is because all the recipes I have made so far are absolutely delicious. So thank you❤❤❤
My mouth is WATERING! Those look SO GOOD! Thanks for sharing! 🤤
Mouth watering 😋 tamales 🫔, always looking forward to ur recipes. Us Navajo make whats called, Blue corn Tamales delishes too. Stay safe 🙏🏿
Girl, thank you! The best recipe perfect every time, never using another recipe ❤
You’re seriously The Best!!! I Love all your cooking Videos I’ve made so many and all of them are always a Hit!!! And I finally got a stand mixer so this year my tamales should be ready fast I would always break my back making them But not this Time lol 😆 thank you so much 😊 I freaking appreciate you and all your hard work! May God continue to bless you!!
Another thing I just made my masa and it actually floated this time my masa has never floated!!! I mixed 20 mins and added about 1/2 more of warm water 🤗
Tus uñas están preciosas, tu vestuario sienpre lo mejor no se diga tu maquillaje y peinado ..me encantan tus recetas eres una chica muy encantadora ...felicidades una gran chef
Awe muchas gracias hermosa!!! ☺️ me fascina lo que hago y eso se nota ♥️
You make everything look so easy your such a good cook thank you for sharing sweet lady 🥰
Claudia, thank you so much for this! I've only ever attempted to make tamales once as a teen with my abuela, and they were sad and dry. This Christmas, I told myself, NO MORE FEAR! Your video helped so much, I made the most moist tasty tamales.💖💖
I've watched several videos, yours by far stands out! Thx for the general amounts and how to do it...also your makeup is on point!
THANK YOU! Last year, I had so many issues but this year I won’t have those troubles thanks to your video.
Omg ty so much! We've been trying for days to pass the float test but now we've learned that the masa was too thick and dry. I searched everywhere and even followed the recipe on the tamal package and it was also too dense. It seems like everyone on the internet likes tortilla style masa because after watching this video the difference is night and day in the consistency. I thought it was close and kept beating for hours but after I saw this I added about a 1/3 cup of water mixed for 10 mins and bam passed the float test! Ty ty ty ty!!! My fiance and I only started this project because I live in a town full of immigrants selling tamales in the parking lot for $2 a piece and they are all so dense and dry but now we can make our own and they will be moist and yummy thanks to you!
Hola Claudia, I am so excited to find your channel! When I was a young girl my family lived in Fruitland, Idaho and our neighbors were a young Mexican family. Our families became fast friends and Mama Agüera made the best food in the world! She taught my mama to make tamales but I cannot find her recipe. I can't wait to make yours!! Thank you so much for making these videos!
First time making tamales; they were a hit! My masa was great!
Love your outfit! When my dad makes tamales he has us do it together, unless we are unable to go over. Hope to see him this Christmas and make some 😄
Awe my beautiful amiga! My dad makes the masa for us 😅 it’s my favorite thing about the holidays getting together to make tamales ❤
@@CookingConClaudia do you still have the video of your dad mixing the masa?
Thank you Claudia; I followed your instructions and " trust the process". My tamales turned out delicious and fabulous.
Hi Claudia! Thanks for your recipe . Where did you get the steamer pot ? And what if I use a regular pot ?.
Hi Claudia, made your green tamales just a couple days ago and they came out perfect. Best I've ever made. Your floating masa tip did the trick 🙂 Super Delicious! Merry Christmas to you & your family! 💖
Thanks Claudia. I made masa before by hand and this year I have a mixer. Following these steps it was SOOO easy to make tamales I will be making them more often. I don’t like how hot it makes my stand mixer but it gives me another reason to use it.
Hi Claudia! Thank you for all your help. I’m making these on Saturday but I was wondering do I add all of the 4 cups of broth from meat or no?
I love how professional your videos are. Very nice 👑🖤👑🖤👑
I ready helping my gm long time ago, now i just buy
When you opened the tamal my mouth watered,!!!!!!!
For the life of me, I can NOT get the masa to float!!!! I mixed with a hand mixer for more than 45 minutes. I added some water and mixed for a bit longer but it didn't help. I felt like the masa is just too thin.
Do you ever go: 'Whoever came up with tamales, God bless that person', etc.? I go like that sometimes. Similarly, there's things I'm thankful for, like soap, belts, etc. Those are obviously the best tamales in the Universe. I did spot a bottle of adobo sauce & bought it & was hoping it's the sauce I'm thinking it might be. It says on the bottle what I could do with it. I thought about trying it in Chili at least. Love you SO much... 💛
Gracias por compartir!!! Primera vez (en cuatro años que tengo de estár intentando. Salieron de maravilla. Gracias de nuevo. Voy a seguir tu página. Estoy casi segura que las demas de tus recetas me resultarán deliciosas. Buen día!!! 🥰
I always enjoy watching you, your tone of voice is sweet and calm and Inviting to cook mexican food.
I'm going to be making your pork and salsa verde tamales (again) for Christmas, everyone is looking forward to them! Super easy and delicious! 🫔
I haven't had much Mexican food but I'm so glad that I found this channel. I would love to try these recipes. Everything looks so good.😊💕
Claudia you are truly amazing!!!! I followed your recipe and my masa floated on the first try! Thank you!!! My family loved the tamales.
I absolutely love your recipes. Thank you so much. I have learned so much from you. ❤❤❤
This was super helpful. My biggest complaint with Tamales is that the Masa is so thick with very little filling. Your's look just perfect! I will give your method a try!
When you make your own tamales you can decide how much filling you want to add. When buying someone's tamales they try to make as many as they can, thus less filling. More cost effective for them.
They looked very delicious 😋. We buy our masa,but we still knead it and and more salt and lard to taste.🥰
You are the most thorough person when it comes to recipes. Thank you so much for this Im trying this recipe today!
I just watched an instruction video using the hand whip method. I knew I had to find one that used my stand mixer. Now I feel like I could take on this project.
Gorgeous dress! Definitely trying this recipe tonight
One of the best recipe and directions on how to make great tamales!! Felicidades!! Listo para hacerlos el Sábado!!
CLAUDIA: YOU HAVE THE BEST RECIPES EVER !! I ALWAYS LOOK FORWARD TO YOU SHARING YOUR RECIPES, AND THAT SUNNY SMILE AND WONDERFUL PERSONALITY OF YOURS.
THANK YOU SO MUCH, AND I WISH YOU, YOUR FAMILY AND FRIENDS A HAPPY, HEALTHY AND PROSPEROUS NEW YEAR !💗🎊🎇🎉

The chicken or beef broth liquid may be defatted by putting it in the refrigerator overnight. As it cools, the fat will collect to the top of the container and form a layer of white colored fat. Simply skim off this layer and either discard it or use it for as a cooking fat in other recipes.
Omg thank you so much for your recipes I made tamales late last night on a whim - they came out so good thank you for sharing your recipes
I'm going to try to make these this weekend! You never steer me wrong! Always come in clutch with these amazing yet easy to follow recipes and I appreciate it very much! Sending lots of love from TX ❤️ 💙 can't forget 💗 to say girl you look so pretty with that dress! That color looks lovely on you!
God bless you my dear. I've learned much from your videos. Simple, elegant and delicious. The food is good also.
Chosing you to be my guide for my first attempt at these for my family ❤ wish me luck!
Merry Christmas Claudia! I am making your tamales right now for the 4th year in a row. However, I cannot seem to get the massage to float. Why does it it not flow? I know you said to add more water but what happens if it does not float? Please respond back to me. I'm so sorry. I am doing them now and I've been mixing for 45 minutes. I follow the recipe to the T and it's still not floating. I mix for about an hour
Im sorry im late 😪 how did it turned out?
@@CookingConClaudia thank you so much for responding to me I know you're so busy! The first batch is almost done but I could not get it to flot I literally mixed it for like an hour with a hand mixer and if I would have put more liquid I felt like it would be too watery to spread. But I have made your tamale recipe in the past years the first video I seen was with your dad and that video was the one I'm always trying to go back on but I can never find the video. For some reason that video is easier for me to follow LOL 😆 when I made you tamales in the past last year it did not float but it was still so bomb! What is the difference of when it floats and when it does not float? Ps. I don't know if you have tried the New Mexico Autumn roast hot green chili hatch the Frozen kind you should make a video using that chili, it's so good! I'm sending love from Albuquerque, NM ❤️😘🥰🥰 I've been watching your videos for years now! Not only your cooking videos but your blogs with your family so cute! ❤️🥰
I wish I could give this video 100 thumbs ups! What a fantastic video Claudia, thank you!
I have watched so many videos to prepare my tamales. So glad I came a cross this video. I was going to mix the masa by hand. Lol!
Hello Claudia, I love watching your videos. Thank you for sharing with us the best recipes ever. I have made quite a few of them for my family and every time they are a hit ! We love you. I will definitely try your tamale masa recipe. I too have the problem, that my masa never floats. But now with your guidance, I’m sure it will. Once again thank you for sharing, you are such a beautiful soul. God Bless you and your family. Merry Christmas from California! ❤
I love your recipes! Much love from the Regalado fam in San Diego
You know what's funny. Everytime my family wants to learn to do something I tell them "look if Claudia has made it. She never dissapoints"
Claudia! I love watching your videos! You make it look so easy!!!! 😊thank you!
Happy Thursday amiga mia! How did you know I needed this recipe! Well you know they say great minds think alike 😉🥰😂 Anyways I will be following this easy way to prepare my masa this weekend for tamales Rojas y de rajas con queso 😋😋🤪 TQM AMIGA ❤❤❤
Tqm mi hermosa ☺️♥️♥️♥️
Thank you for all your great tips. I will try to make them for the first time, this Christmas thanks to you.
Thank you so much for your directions on making masa. Awesome❤️💐🌸😋❤️
And that’s why we buy it already prepared 😊I’m happy to see you have sponsors.🙌🏽
I just bought this tamal package to try and make it this way!! Needed this video. Thank you ❤
They look delicious Claudia 😊 thank you for sharing this video . Have a happy new year ❤🎉
Wow. Thank you! Shout out from New Mexico. I love your videos. So clean and simple and you do not have long winded introduction. NM has better varieties of green chili than Hatch!!!
Thank you for the recipe Claudia.
These look so yummy! I’m going to make them again this year😊
My masa never floats and I've followed your steps and even have the same stand mixer. I still use the to masa and it turns out good. But I feel I'm not doing it right if my masa doesn't float. I'm beginning to think it's a Mexican urban legend hahaha. l'll get it right someday.
Awe my beautiful amiga, try adding a little water then mix again and try again I’m not sure why it’s not working for you, but I left some notes in the description box hope this time it works and you have no issues😊❤
What lard do you use? That's probably your issue
Same here, I have tried this method multiple times and absolutely can not get my masa to float, I feel like at one point you have to have added too much liquid. I don't know, but I still have never gotten there.
@@angelica4luvs665 Thanks girl I'm gonna try that 🙏
You're not along, I'm Mexican. The water test didn't work for me .. but no mixer ..it's the lard.. you need more. She said 12oz or more water. 🤔 I will try again for New years. God bless 🙌
I love the way you make the masa super easy! 🥰 I made your green Chile tamales 🫔 and they came out perfect 💗 . . But when I made the red ones with beef the masa came out way to oily , so now that you explain the broth shouldn’t have all the oil it makes sense! That day I did have to go to the store and buy beef broth and it turned out fine 🥲 . . .
They look absolutely delicious 🤤🫔❤️… I love all your recipes 😊😊❤❤
I have yet to make any in my life. 🤦🏾♂️ Those look amazing as always mami!! 💛💙☺💯
Thank you for the great tips and trick to make great tamales....God Bless you. You are such a great cook...
I can’t wait till you get deals w appliances 💗💗
Looking beautiful like always Claudia and these tamales look delicious 😋
Doing this with my leftover Birria tomorrow. Thank you.
Hi Claudia I have made many of your meals with success, but the masa for the tamales, failure! I am on my 4th batch and cannot get my masa to float. I have followed your recipe to the T.. Just don't know what Im doing wrong. Very frustrating.
Thank you very much Claudia. I continue to learn from your excellent guidance.
Thank you for all your tips and your recipes!!
She always looks so fabulous!
Thank you for these tips on making the masa. It frustrated me so much the last time I made them and the masa didn't float 😤 I'm gonna try again this year with your recipe!
Have fun 😊❤ I can’t wait 🎉
Hi Claudia can you give us the recipe to make the whole bag of masa for tamales? Thanks!
Of course I did 6 lbs here in the description box is the full list 😊 ua-cam.com/video/NAX5dj0Y2cY/v-deo.html
