As the holidays approach Latin American families like mine begin to plan their menus and tamales are always the star of the party. Making tamales from scratch takes some time and preparation from soaking the husk to serving a steaming tamale that slides right off the husk when you unwrap it. Many a tias mamás and abuelitas debate around the kitchen table: who has the best tamale recipe? While it’s a debate that’s never really settled one thing is for sure: Whether you’re new to tamale making or an expert with your own recipe or one that’s been passed down to you the best tamales start with a deliciously trusty masa recipe.
