I followed this recipe which was my first time making tamales. Its a dish I’ve wanted to make for a long time and something I would like to perfect. They came out delicious, my family enjoyed them. However, I do plan on adding additional ingredients to the masa as some of the other reviews and my cousin have suggested.
I used fresh ground ginger root but I substituted the sugar with turbinado sugar. Also I didn’t use a strainer Because I wanted as much benefit from the root as possible. Very delicious I loved it. I had a friend from Lebanon suggest using honey instead of sugar so I will try that next time.
