2. Blend with an electric mixer Maseca corn masa mix for tamales, corn oil, salt, baking powder and the chicken broth to obtain a consistent mixture.
3. Shred the chicken and marinate in the green salsa or tomatillo sauce.
Spread masa evenly over corn husks, and spread a spoonful of marinated chicken on top of the masa.
4. Fold the sides of the cornhusk to center over the masa so that they overlap to make along package.
5. Fold the empty part of the husk under so that it rests against the side of the tamale with a seam.
6. Place the tamales in tamale steamer and cook tamales for 35-40 minutes. Check every 20 minutes. The tamales are cooked when they separate easily from the corn husk.

Product Reviews for Mexican Tamales Making Kit

Mexican Tamales Making Kit5Patty McNamaraAugust 23, 2010I had never made tamales before and couldn't find corn husks here (small town in Canada). I also didn't have a suitable pot and rack for steaming them so decided to order the whole kit. Upon arrival I was dismayed that the pot was all bashed in at the bottom. I was given a quick refund when I brought it to their attention but I would rather have the pot. I have a smooth top stove and it's going to wobble - I also like my things to look like they are in good repair. So, I have rigged up something with another rack and pot. Anyhow - I used the ingredients included with the kit and made chicken tamales and they were GREAT!. Aside from some very expensive shipping (because it was an international order) and the bashed in pot I'm happy with my transactions with MexGrocer.com. My issues were handled promptly and courteously and all the included food items were satisfactory. If you are going to order this pot be prepared to make a LOT of tamales to fill it - it's huge.
Mexican Tamales Making Kit5LindaAugust 19, 2010I have NEVER made tamales before. We used to get them from a Mexican lady every Fall when she would come up to Maine. Double-Delish!! I wanted to try making them myself because we couldn't get them from her anymore. This kit was perfect. The tamales came out excellent. They tasted just like hers...maybe even better. Also, I love the pot. I can use it for so many things, not just tamales; for example, steamed lobster or clams or corn on the cob all come out perfect.
Mexican Tamales Making Kit5PatJune 19, 2010This kit is awesome...after Cinco de Mayo, I craved tamales - we can't get them in the Virgin Islands - I made a batch, using all of the products and going to the MexGrocer web site for additional advice on technique - they were wonderful. In my opinion, MexGrocer's customer service was A+ and the order arrived quickly. I would recommend their services to anyone wanting to create authentic Mexican dishes.
