Steps:
- Soak the corn husks in a bowl of hot water, using a plate to keep them submerged, until pliable, 1 hour.
- Meanwhile, make the filling: Bring the bouillon powder and 4 cups water to a simmer in a medium pot over medium heat. Add the chicken and simmer until cooked through, 12 to 15 minutes. Remove the chicken and let cool; cut into small pieces. Reserve the broth.
- Puree the cilantro and 1 1/4 cups of the reserved broth in a food processor until smooth (save the remaining broth for another use). Transfer to a medium pot. Add the garlic, cumin and salsa and bring to a simmer over medium heat; cook until slightly reduced, about 12 minutes. Stir in the chicken and season with salt. Remove from the heat and let cool.
- Make the dough: Soak the ancho chile in hot water until soft, about 15 minutes. Drain the chile, then mince to make a paste. Combine the chile paste, masa harina, lard, 2 2/3 cups warm water and 2 teaspoons salt
- in a bowl. Mix with your hands (or use a mixer with the paddle attachment) 10 to 15 minutes, or until a marble-size ball of dough floats in water.
- Drain the husks and pat dry. Starting 1/2 inch from the wide end, spread about 3 tablespoons of the dough down a husk, leaving a 1-inch border on the sides. Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the chicken filling down the center of the dough, then fold in the sides of the husk, wrapping the dough around the filling. Fold up the narrow end of the husk. Repeat with the remaining husks, dough and filling.
- Set a steamer basket in a large pot filled with 1 to 2 inches of water. Arrange the tamales standing up in the steamer, folded-side down. Bring the water to a boil over medium-high heat, then cover and steam until the tamales pull away from the husks, about 1 hour. Remove from the steamer and let cool slightly before unwrapping.
CHICKEN & PORK TAMALES
I make tamales probably only once a year but when I do I make a lot ! I no longer use the husk to wrap them in, that takes way too long, and I make too many for that, plus I don't really have any help any more. I use parchment paper to wrap them in now, I found that it is easier and faster , and it keeps the tamale more moist....

- 10. spread masa on husks or parchment paper not too thin or too thick, add filling and wrap up folding the top and bottom over to close. with husks you can leave the top open, but you need to pay more attention to how you stack them in the steamer pot.
- 11. stack in steamer pot and steam for at least 1 hour. enjoy 8] I make the masa as I need it, and I make a large amount of tamales, everything can be adjusted as you need. You can do any filling that you like, I always just play around and add what I like 8]
TAMALES
a little time consuming to prepare but well worth the effort if you've never had anything but the store bought ones. You will want to prepare the filling first. The corn shells are made last so they don't dry out. the pork stock will come from boiling the meat. you will need to reserve this. I like to put the meat bone in the pot so the marrow will thicken the flavor of the stock. Can also be made with beef or chicken, if using chicken cut back on the spices a bit so you don't over power the meat. Corn shuck scraps can be boiled with the meat to increase the shuck flavor of the tamale. it'll also make the house smell good.

Steps:
- Soak 50 corn shucks for several hours in hot water, each trimmed to about 4"x6".
- For the Filling:.
- cut pork in 3" chunks and boil in water for about 45 minutes or until tender.
- RESERVE THE STOCK.
- remove any excess fat. shred pork (like making pulled pork for bbq).
- In mixing bowl add 1 cup stock and all the spices to the meat, set aside in fridge till ready to stuff the tamales.
- For the Corn Shells:.
- work the shortening into the corn meal by hand or mixer. Add salt, then the stock, mixing well. The resulting paste will be thick.
- when the corn shucks are soft and pliable remove one at a time to form the tamale. leave the rest in the water till ready to use so they stay pliable.
- with off set spatula or table knife spread some corn paste (masa) into the middle of the corn shuck; about 2"x4" and 1/8"thick.
- spread a tbs of the meat filling into middle of the masa. (if you've ever seen someone prepare to roll a cigarette you'll have the idea.).
- Now here's where you will need to practice a bit:.
- when rolling up the tamale don't roll the corn shuck up inside of the masa.
- the shuck will help you roll the masa in the way a bamboo mat helps you roll a spring roll.
- when the tamale is rolled the shuck should be loosely wrapped about it. (the masa will expand while being steamed).
- Tie the ends of the shuck closed and set aside.
- repeat till all the ingredients are used.
- place tamales in a single layer on steamer rack. (i use a lidded dutch oven with a roasting rack).
- steam over boiling water for 1 hour.
- sauce can be made with any left over stock.

Steps:
- Cook the Pork.
- Remove the skin from the shoulder and chop into big chunks, pop in large saucepan and cover with at least 20 cups of water add seasoning's and bring to the boil, simmer for around 2 hours till meat can be shredded. When pork is ready remove from broth and leave to cool, DO NOT DISCARD THE BROTH.
- Prepare the MASA.
- In a large mixing bowl add 6 cups of Masa Flour, cumin, salt, pepper,garlic powder, paprika and baking powder. Add 6 cups of retained broth and beat in well, dissolve the lard in a bowl in a microwave, when liquid beat in to the dough for about 10 mins to get some air into the mix, makes for a fluffier masa. Leave covered to cool.
- Put your husks in a mixing bowl and cover with hot water to soften (about 30 mins).
- To make the Mole.
- fry onions till brown, add tomatoes, seasoning's and chillis add the remaining broth bring to the boil then turn down to simmer, add 1 cup of masa flour and stir until the mole thickens a bit. Leave to cool.
- Prepare the filling.
- Shred the pork with your fingers or 2 forks and put into a mixing bowl. Add mole until you have a nice moist mixture (not to runny)
- Make your Tamales.
- Take a husk place on a flat surface, take one tablespoon of masa dough and spread over husk to within 1 inch of the edges. Place one tablespoon of filling onto the centre of the masa, pick up husk and roll the masa over the filling roll into a tube flip up the pointed end to make a packet and tie with butchers string or a strip of husk. Place in your steamer and steam for 90 mins, till cooked.
- Once cooked you can eat them or store in the freezer for later. I vacuum seal mine in pairs they will keep for 6 months (if you can keep your hands off them). Best eaten hot with a good slosh of salsa and a nice crisp salad. To reheat steam for about 10 mins or re heat in microwave for about 2 mins well covered until piping hot.
PORK TAMALES
A little variation here from the traditional, in that this is 100% my own personal recipe for the pork mixture. I also prefer beef broth in the masa as compared to chicken broth. But I think you'll agree these are some darn good tamales.

Steps:
- Soak corn husks in water for 24 hours prior to cooking, using something heavy to keep them submerged.
- Prepare pork filling: Place guajillo chile peppers in a dry skillet over medium heat; dry roast until fragrant, 20 to 30 seconds per side. Pour some water over top and simmer until tender, about 2 minutes. Remove chiles from the skillet and transfer to a blender.
- Add beef broth, tomato sauce, onion, garlic, chipotle peppers in adobo sauce, vinegar, cloves, salt, cumin, allspice, and pepper to the blender and process until smooth.
- Place pork butt in a slow cooker and pour marinade over top. Cook on Low until pork is tender and can be easily pulled apart with a fork, 4 to 5 hours. Shred pork and return to the slow cooker. Mix with the sauce until combined.
- Combine masa, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt for dough in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; whisk to combine. Add beef broth and lard and whisk well; the resulting mixture should have an almost fluffy consistency and be relatively tacky.
- Roll out a corn husk and pat it dry. Spread the dough evenly in the center of the corn husk, leaving room around the edges. Dollop a line of pork filling down the center. Fold the bottom of the husk up, then fold one edge over the filling. Tuck that edge under the filling and dough, and roll toward the other edge to seal around the filling. Fold the top down and tie with kitchen string, wrapping twice to secure. Repeat to make remaining tamales.
- Place a steamer insert into a large saucepan and fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer. Bring water to a boil.
- Place tamales vertically into the steamer basket, with the sealed edges down. Cover the pan and steam for 1 hour. Serve hot.
