Details

Expand your menu's global offerings with these Tucson Foods green chile and cheese tamales! A beloved staple in Latin American cuisine, tamales are a comfort food that consist of a savory filling, like meat and chiles, that is surrounded by masa, or corn dough, and then wrapped in a corn husk and steamed. Dating back to pre-Columbian times, tamales have been feeding the masses for centuries and are a time-honored tradition during the holidays. These tamales feature a hearty filling consisting of a melty mix of cheddar and jack cheeses and fire-roasted Hatch green chiles, which are grown exclusively in New Mexico's Hatch Valley and are known for their spicy, smoky flavor. The filling is enveloped in a layer of seasoned organic white corn masa and hand-rolled in a traditional corn husk for an authentic taste and presentation.

Stock your deli case or hot bar with these tamales to offer your customers a convenient take-out option that's ready to heat and serve. To heat, place your desired number of tamales vertically in a steam pot, ensuring the water on the bottom of the pot does not touch the tamales. Steam the tamales until they reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit - cook times will depend on the number of tamales you prepare and whether you heat them from thawed or frozen. You can also heat these tamales in a steam oven or microwave them for extra quick preparation! Once they're heated, you can serve these tamales with traditional sides like rice and beans, or serve tamales alone for a simple yet satisfying appetizer. No matter how you choose to serve them, these Tucson Foods tamales are an easy way to offer a beloved Latin staple that will keep your customers coming back for more!
