June 3, 2012 (Powerhomebiz.com) Food is an integral part of modern day society. It takes part in kitchens, on television screens, and some chefs have even reached celebrity status through their cooking. New dishes are seemingly created everyday, and a lot of traditional recipes have fallen by the wayside, replaced by more interesting, or in many cases, more convenient foods.
But texastamale.com/, a company from Houston, Texas, have become increasingly more popular after putting their stamp on an age-old recipe. They sell Hot Tamales a type of food that is over two thousand years old. Food historians have discovered that tamales were eaten by the Ancient Mayans as part of ceremonial feasts, and evidence of the consumption of tamales dates back to a staggering two centuries ago.
Hot Tamales are an everyday comfort food. They can be eaten as a snack, or used as part of breakfast, lunch or dinner. They are made from corn masa and are traditionally filled with chicken, beef, or pork. The Texas Tamale Company have altered the traditional recipe and made it more palatable for the modern day tongue. Instead of using lard, they use soy-based oils to make their Hot Tamales a lot more healthy. They have also introduced a vegetarian alternative, which instead of meat, has a filler of spinach or black beans.
The Texas Tamale Company can be contacted at the address and phone numbers mentioned below, additionally their website can also be viewed to gain more insight on their services offered.
