This fun and informative class supported Backcountry Hunters & Anglers in their mission to protect and preserve public lands for all recreational users. 

Our family has long invited our community to come to the kitchen and make tamales this time of year. It was a tradition my Papi brought with him from Mexico - in Mexicano households, families gather together in early December and make big batches of food to feed big groups of people.  In our home, folks would gather in the kitchen over piles of banana leaves, bowls of chicken and masa, and share in big batch cooking: laughing and swapping stories while dad presided over the whole thing. And when he passed away I knew I wanted to carry the tradition on - to offer the best of his life not only for our benefit but for the benefit of others. So many friends often ask and nudge about the next tamale-making party - I think we all crave those moments where new skills are learned, good work is shared, and stories happen. There’s a welcoming rhythm in making food together that allows for connection and conversation over a shared task. 

The truth is, you don’t have to look that far to have a good reason to make tamales. They’re endlessly versatile, and they freeze and save well. But when it comes down to it, the best reason to make tamales is to make them together. 

These are meant to be gathering places, and that’s more valuable than ever right now. And while I’m still working out a way to gather you all into my kitchen in the physical, for now, I’m inviting you to gather in the virtual.  

This two hour pre-recorded virtual tamale-making experience is yours to watch anytime! 

You'll receive a fundamental cooking kit that includes the Montana Mex products I like on hand for tamales, my favorite masa from Masienda, and a beautiful little tool from Earlywood Designs I like to use when working with tamales. We will also email you an eBook that includes some of my favorite tamale fillings and toppers.

Here’s what you’ll receive in your kit: OVER A $65 VALUE! 

• Montana Mex Sweet Seasoning 3.4 oz Tin
• Montana Mex Mild Chile Seasoning 2.4 oz Tin
• Montana Mex Jalapeño Seasoning 2.4 oz Tin
• Montana Mex Sweet & Spicy Habanero Sauce 13.6 oz bottle
• YOUR CHOICE of a Signature VW Bus OR Owl Tea Towel
• Masienda Heirloom Yellow Corn Masa Harina 2.2lb  
• Earlywood Wooden Spreader *colors will vary*
• BONUS! Tamale eBook
• Unlimited access to a recording of this session

This virtual class is part conversation, part methodology, part demonstration, and an all-around good time. We cover the art of mixing masa, dive into the play of concocting delicious fillings for any palate, and bring the whole process together to make some toothsome tamales to enjoy now or later. With tips, tricks, and techniques all along the way. 

You’ll have full access to a recording of our live stream so you can watch again anytime.  PLUS a fun little eBook with recipes & photos from the day, along with deeper stories inspired by this mighty dish. 

Here’s the really good part: We partnered with Backcountry Hunters & Anglers again this year, so a portion of the proceeds from every ticket sold goes directly towards supporting their work protecting & preserving public lands for all recreational users.
