. some of you make me laugh like did you not hear what the historian said. she told hanna how it was made back then a long time ago and thats how hanna made it. so why some of you keep saying she did it wrong thats not how you do it? like lol she did it correctly as the HISTORIAN told her. and its been thousands of years so of course now people make it a little different. and even different countrys, to different places in that same country to every family make it different. i make it different to how your family makes it and so on. so there isnt a correct or wrong way as long as it taste good and its cooked and still resembles the first one as the historian told hanna to make. if anything everyone is making it wrong lol if you are not making it like in this video then you made it wrong. since thats how they did it back then correct thats the correct way right lol everyone makes it a little different

I am amazed that Hannah used the 'METATE' aka the grinding machine, wow I am from Celaya, Guanajuato, Mexico and in my region we have a kind of tamales called tamales de ceniza (Ash tamales. I should say that every mexican state or region has its own kind of tamales. The turkey seems yummy, although, her 'masa' is a little weird for me, maybe it needs more water or, due that the tamal is from mayan heritage, could be different. In a second thought, the tamales seems the kind that are made in Oaxaca state, but the 'masa' is dissimilar. As mexican, I applaud her attempt, but she needs a 'vaporera' (a really big pot called in English 'tamales steamer', and if she can't make a hole in the ground, the 'vaporera' could be put on the stove, not in the oven, that way the cooking is a little bit different, but the results (flavor, odor, taste) are worth it.

Fun fact, if nixtamalization was known of the Natives, the invaders did not ask them cooking recipes, so when poor americans had to eat only corn like natives did, they suffered from carences and diseases and the invaders had to re-discover the process to avoid this problems: p

In Guatemala. We use a lot the Banana Leaves, cuz it gives a lot of flavor and aroma. And we use Turkey, Chicken, Pork, and few other meats to have variety of flavors. Tamales are just perfection.

Habenaro is only about the middle of the scale. Sooo. Just pointing it out. I personally don't like the taste. The spice level is fine. I prefer chili arbol. Or even Chipotle in adobo.

I'm from Yucatan, and we actually call it pib, muk-bil pollo it's okay, but it's really weird to hear. Also, it's only cooked on Dia de Muertos and those ones you made are just regular tamales
