🫔🌶️🌵FAQ
One of the questions I get asked the most is how to reheat tamales. The good news is they're delicious just about any way you choose!
Here are a few of my favorite methods:
🌊 Microwave: Place a small cup of water next to your tamales while reheating to help keep them moist.
🧈 Cast Iron Skillet: Heat over medium-low with a little butter until warmed through and lightly crisp.
🌡️ Deep Fryer: Heat your oil to 350°F before frying for a crispy outside and tender inside.
🔥 Steamer: Steam until the tamales are heated all the way through.
💛 Storage Tips
Because everything is homemade with fresh ingredients and no added preservatives, please refrigerate your tamales, salsa, tortillas, and desserts after purchase. They won't stay safe at room temperature for more than a couple of hours. Everything is made fresh the day before or the day of pickup to give you the most authentic and delicious food possible!
If you'd ever like a full ingredient list, I'm always happy to provide one before you order.
For your peace of mind, I'm licensed and food safety trained, and I take great pride in preparing every order with care. While my products qualify for sale under Colorado's cottage food laws, I follow safe food handling practices every step of the way.
Thank you all so much for supporting Mama's Cocina! 💛
