She's just so happy about grinding.
I live in yucatan where they still make mucbi pollo like this. Mucbi pollo it's a traditional tamal and we eat it in special occasions which are like the day of the death and its available all October
Tasty really needs to become a TV channel with all these little shows being actual TV shows.
this looks similar to a venezuelan hallaca
Im eating a tamale right now while watching this lol
The funny thing is to this day we still do all that process for tamales; that thing where she ground the corn is called "metate" and to this day it's used at most mexican houses
Filipinos have tamales too
No lard neccesary!!! 😷 great recipe!!!!
I love how you made The Yucateco Tamale. You didn’t add any strange ingredients in it. My family is from the Chihuahua and from Yucatán so we make both type of tamales for Christmas.
Her using gloves to grab the habanero and my dad just taking bites of it
3:55 we indians have this kind of similar one but in different states we called thi thing different names in kerela we callled this as ammikallu but it is mor denser and bigger …….. that banana leaf wrapping is one of our favorite one we even do this things in this modern days………..
No… Nixtamalization is the process of soaking the corn in wood ash water or powder made from certain shells mixed with water, (also the lime you used) to create a chemical change in the corn — which then makes the corn possible for proper digestion and properly to be able to absorb nutrients. This is how you prevent pellegra disease (result of lack of Vitamin B3) when on a predominantly corn diet — something that the rest of the world didn't do and ended up with pellegra when they had a high corn diet because they didn't do this chemical change to the corn. There is MUCH more to Nixtamalization than just removing the husks.
I have a history project about foods made of New World and Old World foods, and this supports my project a lot
This reminded me of my favourite food, bamboo sticky rice dumpling
Hannah is so fun, she is like the perfect person for this show, I love it!!!!
don't be afraid to link the molcajete sis
She's adorbs. I've introduced my old foodie friends, and they're all fans now. Great ideas for new/old creations!
Masa is so easy to make
Step one: drive to vijarta
Step two: pick up masa and walk to line
Step three: pay for masa
0:47 xD ===> 0:55 ALMOST thousands?? xD 200 B.C means over 2,2 thousand, dear Hannah xD
My mom is from Panamá & our tamales have always been steamed in banana leaves. I personally think they taste better than corn husk.
Fun fact the Aztecs actually served the Spanish Tamales
Hannah reminds me of Desmond from hiho kids
I wonder what happened when humans first discovered the habanero pepper…
6:35
I see what you did there
She said "Tamal".. Yep.. You're officially Mexican now. 😜 Anybody that knows anybody knows this is how you say it. 😜 Peace & love. Stay safe everybody. 💚👊✌
My family is from Guatemala and another type of leaf that's used to wrap tamales is called "maxan"
“…people have been making tamales for _almost thousands of years_!”
Uh…the first bit of evidence is from 200 BCE…o.O
That masa joke omg
A couple of things I wasn't expecting: her making the Masa from literal scratch, since she's using turkey sounds like a healthy filling (The most common tamales filling is pork), and the Chile habanero cuz I've seen three different chilli peppers like Chile ancho, huajillo and hmm forgot that last one.
Wow in almost every Mexican home there's a Grandma, aunt and mom making tamales like every day. In my family they make it at least once a month (You know as for birthdays, festivities or out of boredom)
This is my favorite show on tasty
Try delia's tamales they are a south Texas food chain right along the border in the Rio Grande Valley and they recently last year they made it so you can order from anywhere in the United States. They are some of the best tamales I have eaten.
Some times she remains me of Ellen 👀
🤷♀️
You know, I try to be open minded but something about iguana tamales just rubs me the wrong way
TAMALES! This is my favorite Hispanic dish! God, I wish I can have some right now
Why is flipping turkey breast, bigger then mine. 😔
This reminds me of the Chinese zongzi. People wrap the glutinous rice in leaves as well, the rice generally has fillings like salted egg with fatty pork, chicken or red bean paste. You normally steam them tho. This tamale recipe seems like something that I would like eating, being spicy and stuff.
Uh actually in our country that's what we use to grind everyday.
This is my favorite show now
I use achiote in soap coloring and also nightshade free tacos since I cant have peppers
I remember eating tamales and drinking coffee with my grandfather.. I miss him a lot, but this video just radiates positivity and makes me have happier thoughts
This is legit just like what we call pastels in Trinidad
