Oh Rachel! So wonderful to see this video! My husband was just diagnosed with kidney cancer. The prognosis is good, Thank God!!! Cooking is a huge stress reliever for me and listening to you is soothing!! I've always been intimidated by tamales but I think it's time to conquer my fears! With you by my side guiding me, anything is possible!!!! Thank you my friend!
Thank you so much for your sweet words, our Lord is the doctor above all doctors, and nothing is impossible with Him, thank God the prognosis is good my friend. I’m glad my videos help with your stress, I’m sending you a warm hug and love, hold on to Gods promises. Merry Christmas blessings to you and your hubby.❤️
You beautiful lady have won my heart and your channel is my new NOT guilty pleasure!! I’m a white girl married to a Chicano! LOVE OF MY LIFE! I’m 57 met him when I was 16! He loves my cooking but I’m going to blow is mind with your recipes… you cook like his mama!
I have tried several recipes using masa (not masa harina) where you have to mix the lard until fluffy, and I have never liked the several recipes I've tried. I decided to give this one a try because adding melted lard seemed so much easier than mixing "the hell out of it. LOL". So, First time using masa harina and first time using melted lard. I made them with the chicken in green sauce + slice of cream cheese in every tamale. Thank you sooooo much!!! These tamales are delicious. I just made some adjustments on saltiness and baking powder : - For the salsa I used the 2 teaspoons of chicken bouillon + 1 1/2 teaspoons salt. - for the masa I used 1 1/4 teaspoon salt + 2 1/2 teaspoons chicken bouillon. And 1 Tablespoon (3 teaspoons) baking powder.
It’s that time of the year again it’s time to watch Rachel cooks with love to get those great hints. Tricks and wonderful directions for perfect tamales. Fingers crossed. I’ll be making some this weekend. Thanks rachelle 🫔
I have used your recipe . My tamales turned out sooo delicious . Everybody in my family likes them . Your presentation is clear ,easy to understand . Thank you so much.
My husband loves them !he loves every one of your recipes I have made .Of i tell him I'making one of your recipes he will be home early from work and waiting at the dinner table!!!! Thank you for making that happen and for making every thing easy slot of other ppl tell you what to do but don't explain the how and why
My husband , who is from ❤Mexico❤ and I absolutely love watching your videos together. I have to get up and start cooking whatever I have in the kitchen because watching you cook and your food makes us so hungry! And we love your presentation. So easy to follow and clean. You are a blessing. I'm so glad I found your channel.
That's why I love you and your videos. Not using the stand up mixture and doing it by hand was clutch. I'm a fan of yours forever. All of your receipts are in my book. Their delicious.
You NEED to write a cookbook! I love watching your videos. I am going to make these with some leftover pork ;0) Thank you for sharing all your wonderful authentic recipes. Side note..... Your nails are GORGEOUS!!
Rachel your cooking is authentic with a twist of new ideas. I love how simple you make your instructions and tips to make it come out right. I've been trying to make chicken tamales on my own and now I see what I'm doing right and wrong. You're so smart for laying the steamer on it's side! Thank you and Feliz Navidad! ❤
Awesome video! I've been making tamales for years, but I have to admit you are MUCH neater than I am about it, lol! And I had no clue what it was that was making my green sauce so sour, I had no idea that you had to boil them on low until they were olive-colored, and not let the skins break....AND let them cool completely, thank you so much for that info! I also use your red sauce for enchiladas, best sauce I have EVER tasted or made- thanks again!
Rachel ur tamales remind me of my Mama! Every Ingredient is authentic just like hers. She's with the Lord now for almost 6yrs . I sure miss her around this time😢. Continuing to carry on her tradition with my Daughter and Grandkids feels me with joy instead of grief! Thanks to you I have taken on new delicious recipes😋. You do more than share you recipes. You impact lives and put smiles on our faces! Merry Christmas Rachel to you and your family. Be blessed 😊💛
Hi Rachel I tried making these Tamales tonight. I couldn't find large corn husk. I bought a spice grinder today. I wish I had put the masa thicker. I made the masa ball and used plastic to spread way easier. I put a turkey in the oven & used that meat. First time making these different but very tasty thank you. Merry Christmas love watching you & Ron 🌲
Me encantan sus recetas, yo soy salvadoreña pero me gusta la comida mexicana y me gusta aprender, también me gusta su canal porque me ayuda con mi inglés, le mandó muchas bendiciones y deseo que pase una feliz navidad junto a sus seres queridos.
This was hard work! You made it look easy. I think there is a learning curve on how to smear these husks and load them. I will have to watch it again. They are in the pot now cooking, first look too sticky, so I’m cooking another 30. I think next time I try this, I will buy a rotisserie chicken and use boxed chicken broth to save some labor. I could never get the ball of masa to float…..my tamales are probably going to taste like crap. But….if so, I will try and try again. Your laborious efforts certainly. Make for wonderful flavor but this is a 2 man job I think. Lol
Thank you so much my friend, I have enjoyed decorating for Christmas, I may not be able to post a tour this year, but will remember it for next year. Merry Christmas Blessings to you. ❤️
Years ago, in a locally well respected Mexican restaurant, I ordered something that included a tomatillo sauce. It was SO sour and SO bitter that I wondered how anyone could stand the taste and I've avoided tomatillos ever since. Now I know what was wrong with them. Thanks for the enlightenment.
Definitely! I've ordered green chilaquiles from a nearby Mexican restaurant and they're so sour that they give me heartburn. I just don't order them anymore.
Thank you so much for your comment, sometimes when when the salsa is a little sour you can add a little sugar but very sour salsa has probably been over boiled.❤️
Might change my menu for Christmas. I made tamales once took me all day, but I used banana leaves. In reality Mrs.Rachael how long did this take you. My ex was Mexican and on Christmas Eve we had this but they made hundreds and had several ladies in the kitchen help is great w tamales. Lol but this green chili recipe is a lot easier then the red sauce I used years ago.
Well,,, I do homemade tacos for Christmas maybe I’ll try tamales for New Year!! Hope you guys are enjoying our Ohio weather this year, lots different than so.Texas! Snow coming in a few days,,, maybe we’ll have a white Christmas?? Love from Springfield Ohio!
We love you, Ms. Rachel! Your skills in the kitchen and your easy-to-understand instructions are beyond compare. Christmas blessings to you and your family.
Rachel, your videos are the best. You speak and move in a clam even pace that is not too fast. Your little helpful tips and reminders throughout are so helpful. Tamales are one of my favorites, but I have yet to work up the courage to make them myself. I am getting close.
Thank you so much for your comment, you can do it my friend. Get your ingredients together then take it one step at a time. Merry Christmas Blessings to you. ❤️
Thanks So much Rachel ❤️I live in New Zealand and I absolutely drool over anything you cook! I so appreciate your sharing and caring. Merry Christmas to You, your Ron and Whanau (Family) and viewer's too!
It's been a loooong time since I made tamales with my mother in law and she used the masa that is like a dough in the store then you mix in the sauce. I loved this video so much. I was looking for a recipe that is easier to handle and won't require the neighborhood to come help. My daughter wants to make tamales this year for Christmas. We will make your recipe. Wish us luck!❤
I really like that you explain step by step. Alot of videos we see for making tamales don't give us the complete steps. I'm new, watching you and just love learning new tricks. Thank you so much
Oh goodness Rachel. I actually believe I can make these. I’ve always been afraid to make these. I’m an experienced home cook, (I just turned 80) but I’ve heard so many horror stories about attempts to make tamales that I’ve shied away from making them. Your directions and suggestions are golden. Thank you.
Thank you so much my friend, make sure you get all your ingredients ready to go, take your time through the steps and clean up a little after each step so you don't get overwhelmed. Play sweet relaxing music and enjoy, I hope my video helps you. Merry Christmas Blessings.❤️
Had a kidney transplant 9 years ago doing well so bless you 🙏 when my kids were young my mother in law made tamales with refried beans with cheese ny kids loved them❤
I was looking for a tamales recipe and stumbled on your channel. I can definitely say, the most authentic and true Mexican recipe that I’ve found on UA-cam. Wow, I’ll definitely will make this for my family. Super excited.
Tamales are one of my favorite foods. Green Chile Chicken are a New Mexico Christmas tradition! I want to try your recipe because I have never used cream cheese in my tamales! I think the cream cheese will make the tamales creamy! I have never put allspice in the broth or maza. Wonderful idea! Thank you for improving my tamales!! Merry Christmas!
Rachel beautiful recipe. I think I might try this with my daughters for New Year’s. I made your ham and white bean soup with a few adjustments, we were snowed in. It turned out fabulous my whole family loved it. thank you.. absolutely love watching your channel.❤️✌️🌼
Prayers to the previous comment, I pray all goes well with your husband's treatment!! Cancer SUCKS!! I dealt with it last year, all good so far. Rachel, thank you so much for this recipe, my husband and I always have tamales on Christmas eve and yes, we make our own, I've never tried using cream cheese, but it looks fantastic! Thank you and merry Christmas to you and all you love.
Christmassy ambience, In Rachel's kitchen, Is making a wonderful difference. Precise and accurate, Tasty and delicious. Merry Christmas to you dear Rachel and your Ron too.🌲❤💕😋
I love these Rachel! You make it look so easy. We don’t have those big,beautiful tomatillos here in Oregon. I wonder if a jar of salsa verde would be okay? I would love to make these to take to our son’s home on Christmas Eve.
Hi Judy! I have used whole canned tomatillos (in a pinch) when making salsa verde & it turns out just as good as when I use fresh. Usually found in the Latin food section but I think you can also order on Amazon if your local market doesn't carry them. Merry Christmas!
Dear Mrs. Rachel - You just inspired me to make pollo tamales which I love so much. I always buy but a good one is hard to find. It's done very sloppy and not really tasting good. I will watch your demo again to see more of your wonderful step by step instructions. You are a great chef and I think I am very blessed to come across your channel. Also, I have decided not to use any chile/picantes so I thought it will make it easier and or will cut some steps shorter. Many thanks for all your other wonderful recipes. I'm getting excited now to start with making my first pollo tamales making. Raquel in LA, CA
WONDERFUL VIDEO! ONE THING THOUGH,maybe you can put your charred poblanos into a paper bag FIRST,then the plastic bag. The forever chemicals☢ will leach into them without a barrier.
Well, I made tamales for the first time, right along with you. I can’t believe I actually did it and they tasted fantastic. Thank you so much. I can’t understand what took me so long and now I’m going to make them once a month. I even got hubby to help roll them and we had a fun time together.
Hi Rachel, I just made tamales using your masa recipe and they came out perfect! My question for you is I would like to know where you purchased your steamer pot? The one I have is dated and I really want to buy one like yours. Thank you for any info you can give me.
Rachel, you have such a teaching talent for describing how everything should look and how to make it the right way. You have me thinking that I can actually make some Christmas tamales this year! Ones I have known before were a family affair with everyone in the kitchen and assembling together. Awesome Christmas fun! Thank you
I always enjoy making tamales with family, and I really enjoy making them alone too, I always get all my ingredients ready and take the steps one at a time and it will all flow easy. I hope my video helps you. Merry Christmas Blessings. ❤️
Wow Rachel, you make it look so easy, I’m going to definitely try this, thank you for your recipes, wishing you a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year
Thank you Rachel for sharing such a delicious recipe. We can always count on you for excellent instructions. Wishing you and your Ron a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year from a Texas fan.
Rachel what a delicious recipe for your delicious tamales!! I'm surely going to make them!! I want to thank you!! God Bless you and your family, Merry Christmas from my home to yours!!🌲⛄🙏🌹
Thank you Rachel for sharing your yummy recipe for this Tamale recipe!! Here in Central Texas tamales are a great favorite. Never did I think that I would be able to make them myself. Your recipe and awesome instructions on how to get them “Rachel Perfect” have inspired me to make them!! Thank you my so very much!!! I pray for God’s abundant blessings over your family this Christmas and New Year!! I look forward to to more delicious recipes from your channel!!! 🙏♥️🎄🎉
You're welcome my friend, sure you can do it, I love to make them with family, but I also work real well alone. I love to get all my ingredients together, then I play soft beautiful music and always clean up after a step and it always works so well. Merry Christmas Blessings to you. ❤️
Thank you, my dear. ♥️ I am truly blessed to have found your “Rachel Cooks With Love” channel!

Hi Rachel, I love watching your cooking shows. I have learned so much from you. I appreciate you for sharing your delicious recipes with us. Just wanted to say thank you and Ron for all your time. Have a very Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year.
So happy to see this video, my 16yo daughter attempted to make tamales last week. Unfortunately they did not turn out well. I now have confidence to attempt them again and they be worth eating!
Oh Rachel! So wonderful to see this video! My husband was just diagnosed with kidney cancer. The prognosis is good, Thank God!!! Cooking is a huge stress reliever for me and listening to you is soothing!! I've always been intimidated by tamales but I think it's time to conquer my fears!

I pray your husband goes into remission soon. 🙏 Much love to you both.
I'm praying for your husband too. 🙏

Mmmm, looks delicious! You make it look easy to make Tamales. My favorite part of any of your videos is the taste test part. I'm sold every time. 🍽️
Aww, thank you so much for your comment my friend. Merry Christmas Blessings. ❤️
Absolutely delicious; I think they are better than the ones with pork.
I tried your recipe. They turned out great. I was surprised. I did bake them instead of steaming. Thank you so much for the stellar instructions.
Details please!!
Very easy thank u
You are a wonderful teacher Rachel, thank you!
Thanks for the recipe. I wondered what was the best cheese to use 😊
Yummy..the tied ones look like Navajo corn tamales.

Those tamales look like the epitome of deliciousness.
What a beautiful presentation so calm so detailed! You made me believe i CAN cook this.

Thank you so much my friend, I have enjoyed decorating for Christmas, I may not be able to post a tour this year, but will remember it for next year. Merry Christmas Blessings to you. ❤️
Wishing you and your family a very Merry Christmas ! 🎄🎁🎁☃️♥️
You have a great way to load them in the pot! Ty!
I definitely will be trying soon. Maybe New Year's Eve.
I think I'm going to get brave and try making tamales. Looks like fun!!
You are such a good cook! The real deal!

Really good and I want to try it. ❤️
Can't wait to try this recipe. Love your taco meat recipe

Merry Christmas to you dear Rachel and your Ron too.🌲❤💕😋
I most definitely have food envy! Love tamales! Any and all! Merry Christmas to you Rachel and to your Ron! ❤ 🤶🎅
I love these Rachel! You make it look so easy. We don’t have those big,beautiful tomatillos here in Oregon. I wonder if a jar of salsa verde would be okay? I would love to make these to take to our son’s home on Christmas Eve.
I've never tried it my friend so it's hard to tell, if it's bland and acidic you might have to season it I would think. ❤️

I love tamales, I'm going to try these for New Years. They look delicious. Merry Christmas to you, your Ron and family.
I just did my chicken tamales last night and I wish I had watched this video first!!! What a nice way of laying the tamales in the pot!
Well, I made tamales for the first time, right along with you. I can’t believe I actually did it and they tasted fantastic. Thank you so much. I can’t understand what took me so long and now I’m going to make them once a month. I even got hubby to help roll them and we had a fun time together.
I love how you make the instructions very clear. The absolute best teacher of Mexican cooking hands down!
Hi Rachel, I just made tamales using your masa recipe and they came out perfect! My question for you is I would like to know where you purchased your steamer pot? The one I have is dated and I really want to buy one like yours. Thank you for any info you can give me.

I always enjoy making tamales with family, and I really enjoy making them alone too, I always get all my ingredients ready and take the steps one at a time and it will all flow easy. I hope my video helps you. Merry Christmas Blessings. ❤️
@@rachelcookswithlove how would you make one with beef not too spicy for kiddos? Thank you
Super Great video! Must I say you have such a beautiful smile
I have made tamales with chicken, Jack cheese and green olives, I think I will try the cream cheese next time. Sounds delicious
Thank you so much, enjoy my friend. Merry Christmas Blessings. ❤️

So happy to see this video, my 16yo daughter attempted to make tamales last week. Unfortunately they did not turn out well. I now have confidence to attempt them again and they be worth eating!
