What side of the husk do you use for tamales?
Wrap and steam your tamales properly
Put your masa mixture on the smooth side of your husk or leaf so the finished product easily slides out of the wrap. Keep your masa in the middle of the husk to ensure there’s ample space to wrap. The tamales will also expand as they steam, so you don’t want them to come unwrapped.
How do you make tamale masa not sticky?
When you start, the masa is going to be really sticky, like a wet bread dough. That’s where lard (or oil) comes in. Lard adds amazing flavor and prevents the cooked tamale from sticking to the husk. If lard is not your jam, then just use vegetable oil or melted shortening.
