Red Chile Tamale

Red Chile Tamale

EverydayCooked

A red chile tamale is a traditional Mexican dish consisting of seasoned meat (typically pork) wrapped in masa (corn dough) and steamed in a corn husk wrapper. The distinctive red color and warm heat come from dried red chile peppers incorporated into both the filling and masa, creating a characteristic spicy-savory flavor profile. The cooked tamale provides a satisfying combination of tender meat and soft, flavorful corn dough, while being naturally gluten-free due to its corn-based composition.
