Description:
Tamale Steamers are used primarily for making tamales. A tamale steamer does just what it says, steams tamales. Since tamales play such an important role in Latin cuisine, anybody that loves to cook Mexican dishes will appreciate this wonderful item. While some tamales are fried, baked or grilled, authentic tamales are steamed. You really haven’t tasted tamale until you tried one that has been cooked this way. IMUSA tamale steamers are a tall metal bucket-like pot with a perforated metal divider that sits at the bottom to keep the tamales out of the hot water. The tamales are stacked upright inside the bucket.
