Instructions for Re-heating Tamales

Wed, 29 Jul 2009 22:10:31 GMT

When your tamales arrive, if they are not frozen, they can be refrozen or refrigerated. In the vacuum-sealed bags, they can stay in the freezer 12 months and in the refrigerator for 4 weeks.

Here are instructions for re-heating them:

· One way is to boil them in the bag. Place them in the boiling water for 15-20 minutes from a refrigerated/thawed state (5-10 minutes more if frozen).

· For steaming, remove tamales from bag, and place in a hot steamer for 15-20 minutes from a thawed state (5-10 minutes more if frozen).

· For oven baking, preheat oven to 325. Remove tamales from bag, wrap in foil, and place them on sheet pan. Bake 15-20 minutes if thawed, and 20-25 if frozen.

· For microwave, cut a hole in the bag. From thawed state, heat one bag at full power 3-4 minutes. If frozen, heat at 50% power 3 minutes; turn the bag over, then heat at full power for 1-2 minutes more.

Baking tamales In the oven

We have purchased two large shipments of your tamales and love them. I prefer to oven bake but have encountered problems of the tamales and their husk sticking to the alum. foil. Tonight I sprayed the foil with Pam (any spray like that would work) before baking and the results were perfect. You might wish to add that to your preparation directions.
