Is It Better To Steam Or Bake Tamales? [Solved]

If you’re after a quicker and easier way to cook tamales, steaming’s your best bet. But if you want that traditional flavor and texture, baking’s the way to go. Reheating? No problem - just steam ’em up and they’ll taste like they were freshly made!

  1. Use a Steamer Basket: Using a steamer basket is the best way to steam tamales as it allows for even heat distribution and prevents them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.

  2. Add Water: Make sure to add enough water so that it does not evaporate during cooking, but not too much that it will flood your tamales.

  3. Monitor Temperature: Monitor the temperature of your steamer and adjust accordingly to ensure that your tamales are cooked evenly throughout.

  4. Cover Tamales: Covering your tamales with a damp cloth or foil will help keep them moist while they cook and prevent them from drying out or burning on the bottom of the pot.

  5. Check Doneness: Check doneness by inserting a toothpick into one of your tamales; if it comes out clean, they are done!

Steam-baking tamales is a great way to make them even better! It’s an easy process that’ll take your tamales to the next level. Plus, you don’t have to worry about ’em getting soggy - they’ll stay nice and crispy. So why not give it a try? You won’t regret it!
