Tamales That Will Leave You Drooling For More And Will Make You Feel Alive

By Scott Cole


Mother once said that food that is wrapped in banana leaves always comes out delicious. I guess it true because a delicacy from Mexico that is famous for it is something that everybody got addicted for. That dish is called Tamales.

Certain people have been eating those delicacies whenever they can. If their mother or grandmother still makes those for breakfast, they pack one or two of those to eat in the office. When they arrived at the office, they are hoping that the moment they microwave that sweet tamale, it would not be a soggy monster.

It got to the point where a group would bring tamale in occasions to trade for other version of the food. There is a lot of version of tamale, some with modern twist like a golden leaf to top it before serving. After people stuff their face with the food, eating them day and night, the moment they could feel the extra pound they are gaining, one will say to reform her ways to never eat too much only to repeat the cycle new year.

Let us talk tamale. Tamale are a traditional food in Mexico they have been making it since the age of Aztecs. And before it is a convenient chow, which hunters used in hunting trips, but now it is a portable chow that you could eat while walking and enjoying the daily life of place.

Also corns in Mexico have a god, in case you do not know. Yes they have god of corns. Those magical small pieces of kernels that could turn into popcorn, I swear it could be compared to abused princess and when a godmother appears to turn her into pretty princess, except you cannot eat princess, depends really if one is into cannibalism.

In simple home, the mother prepared the banana leaf, wash them, baby them and lull them to sleep only to put them on fire. And then after washing the leaf, the next to be prepared is the dough, massage the dough till it become the most relaxes in the whole world. Comes after, is the stuffing which is usually, meat, fruits or a vegetables.

Tamale, after all are very popular during thanksgiving to Christmas season. People orders could reach as big as thirty thousand orders for the first batch. It sounds insane how demanding it sure is in food industry. Maybe because this snack is affordable and delicious, come to think of it, tamale are meatball in a sense.

Tamale, for majority is a comfort food. Comfort food warms your soul when you are carrying big weight on your shoulder. It really is comfort grub that we look for if we stress eat. In that trail of thought, you could say that the whole meal, soft and savory, add life to your soul.

Lastly, whether what nationally you are, foods are for everyone. It was sad to see that most waste sustenance when others barely could eat in a day. Be thankful of what got today and enjoy it thoroughly because you are blessed.
