Description

Made in large batches and steamed in corn husks, the filling combinations for tamales are endless! Our thanks to Pati Jinich of PBS Pati's Mexican Table for sharing with us this version, popular in the western Mexican state of Jalisco. Notes Pati, “In the Mexican tamal universe, there are many different kinds of chicken tamales: in salsa verde, roja, moles of different kinds, or pibili (with achiote seasoning), just to name some. The ones from Jalisco, a combination of fire-roasted tomatoes and poblano peppers, capers, and olives, are full of sazón (great seasoning and taste).”
