Love it! I hate the another videos where they talk a lot or only care about how they look. This video is straight to the point! Thank you!

[@teryheaherring7518]

How do you make cheese and jalapeno tamales

[@cathymarquez3293]

Iam going to try to attempt to make your recipe. 👍❤❤❤❤😊

[@ssiennnnna]

how did it come out??

[@cindyn8994]

Did you have to add any more water to steam pot ?

[@4EverInLove214]

Did you boil or roast the tomatillos before blending?

[@ave2729]

Can you do the same process using pork instead of chicken?

[@kategonzales6395]

Can I make tamale fillings the day before I plan to actually make the tamales?

[@SaltyCocina]

Yes, the tamale meat is the longest process so that will save you lots of time .

[@valentinapierre1124]

Can I use an instapot? I don’t own a tamale pot

[@amynoyer2671]

I found mine at a Hispanic grocery store for $15

[@valentinapierre1124]

@@amynoyer2671 thank you but I don’t own one because my space is limited. I had to pick between the instapot and a tamale pot. 🙃

[@christinamoyano3087]

I use my instapot steam for 30-40minutes

[@iinsatiiableemusic]

if im using manteca do i still have to put it in the microwave?! PLEASE HELP

[@SaltyCocina]

You can mix the manteca with the masa until it has a sandy texture then add the remainder of the ingredients. You can also do the same with the butter if it's at room temperature.

[@apacalyptic1freelancevideo213]
