So from experience I can tell everyone that the prepared masa has a bit of a bouncy texture to it kind of like what a sponge cake has and tends to be a bit on the drier side.
Versus
If you add things such as lard or shortening or even olive oil (remember the potency of this fat will mask the chicken/filling flavor if used) will help with the tenderness of the end product and ultimately give a longer life to the tamal.
As she said it is optional but if you want flavors and texture to stay regardless of the timing you reheat/eat then I would add the extra bit of lard along with baking powder to smooth the dough as well.

Oh! My favorite food during the holidays! I am actually making some pork tamales on Saturday. My daughter and a friend are helping me. I have fond memories of my Grandmother and my Mom and aunts making them. I learned very young how to make them.

I’m SO happy this came to my feed! The tamales I always buy have been changedthey are smaller, they are wrapped in paper instead of husks, and the filling is pasty instead of chunky like it was.
Now I can make my own and freeze them!

My Dad taught me how to make tamales, and he always spread the masa on the rough side because it - according to him - made the masa catch onto the hoja. I’ve never tried on the smooth side. Maybe this year is the year.

Thanks for the recipe Angelica. I want to try to make Tamales for the first time. I’m Puerto Rican and they look similar to our Pasteles; although pasteles is made with a different masa.

This is looks amazing. I thought I didn’t like tamales because every time I had them they were dry, but one time (a students parent made some) & they were so moist it changed my mind

Btw. your viewers should be advised to choose the Poblano peppers with the stems sticking (straight out) as you have. otherwise they will be painfully Super Hot!

I don't make tamales anymore. We're just 2 people and we can't eat all of them in a year. I used to make 5 dozen a year, anyway long story. But love the recipe.

These look and sound amazing and the way you pronounce the name of the dish, (tamales) makes it even more delicious sounding.
