Ingredients
Tamale Ingredients
Preparation Directions
1. Soak Corn Husks
Soak the corn husks in warm water for about 30 minutes until pliable.
2. Prepare the Masa
In a large bowl, mix masa harina, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, cream the vegetable shortening until fluffy, then mix in the chicken broth gradually. Combine the wet and dry ingredients until a soft dough forms.
3. Assemble the Tamales
Take a soaked corn husk, spread about 1/4 cup of masa dough on the husk, leaving the top and bottom edges free. Place 2 tablespoons of filling in the center and fold the sides over the filling. Fold up the bottom of the husk to secure the tamale.
4. Steam the Tamales
Place the tamales upright in a steamer pot, cover, and steam for about 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the masa separates easily from the husk.
5. Cool and Serve
Once cooked, let the tamales cool for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy with salsa or your favorite sauce!
