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.
