About Tamales, masa and pork filling (Hopi)
The tamale is an ancient Mesoamerican dish of masa, a dough of nixtamalized corn, spread with a filling, wrapped in a corn husk or banana leaf, and steamed until tender. Dating back thousands of years to Aztec and Maya kitchens, it remains a cherished food across Mexico and Central and South America, especially as a centerpiece of holiday and family gatherings. Tamales offer carbohydrates and fiber from the corn masa plus protein from their fillings, which range from shredded pork, chicken, and beef in red or green chile sauce to cheese and roasted peppers, beans, or sweet versions studded with fruit and cinnamon.
The wrapper is peeled away before eating. Making them is a communal tradition, with families gathering to assemble big batches. Steam tamales until the masa pulls cleanly from the husk, refrigerate leftovers wrapped for several days or freeze them, and resteam or microwave to bring back their moist, fluffy texture.
