Pati, i recently took a trip to guatemalan and while i was there i took a tamale cooking class for fun. Ever since then i have been obsessed with tamales. Ive learned that mexican tamales are different than Guatemalan tamales in that the masa boiled until thickened and the ratio of masa to liquid is closer to 5 to 1 rather than 1 to 1 (ish) in the mexican recipes ive found. Anyway, i found your recipe for the dessert tamales and tried it tonight. They turned out so good!!! I did modify your recipe though by using virgin coconut oil instead of lard, and using honey instead of sugar and using coconut milk instead of water. Thank you for posting this recipe, even though i modified it quite a bit, it was so darn good!

Can you steam the tamales inside a digital pressure cooker instead of just in a steaming pot on the stovetop? It would save me time if it was doable. Thanks

Hola Pati,
Me encanta tu programa. Me parece muy interesante tu técnica de cocina, AdemÃ¡s encuentro refrescante ver un programa de Autentica comida Mexicana.
Te comento que desde llegar a vivir a los Estados Unidos no he vuelto a tener el gusto de comer unas Gorditas de harina con chicharrón como las que encuentras en cada rincón de México.
Me tomo el atrevimiento de pedirte que compartas una receta de gorditas con tu pÃºblico.
Te felicito por tu maravilloso programa!
Saludos,
Pamela

Pati,
Thank you so much for your recipes and your passion for cooking. My family is from tejas and we make savory tamales… but you have inspired me to try sweet tamales and surprise everyone!
Abrazos!
