What are hot tamales?

A spicy, chile-laden filling is rolled in corn husks and then steamed in a flavorful broth.

How long does it take hot tamales to cook?

Cook the tamales on high heat for 4 1/2 to 6 hours. Check the tamales after 4 hours. The tamale dough is done cooking when the corn husk wrappers easily pull away. If not, then continue cooking and checking every 45 minutes until the dough is cooked.

How hard is it to make tamales?

Making tamales is not difficult, but it is a very time-consuming process. It can take a whole day to prepare a large batch of tamales from start to finish, so clear your calendar if that is your plan.

Can you bake tamales instead of steaming them?

Combining your favorite tamales ingredients and steaming them in a corn husk is the traditional way of cooking this dish. But you can also bake them. Whether you bake, microwave or steam tamales, the corn husk casing will ensure even cooking and prevent dryness.
