 This masa is made exactly the same as our yellow corn masa. The only difference is that native white corn is used, which gives the masa a special, somewhat sweet taste that is favored by Natives Mexicans and many others

This masa is specially ground coarser for tamales which imparts a corn filled flavor. When blanketing the spicy meat filling, the authentic flavors are preferred by many. This New Mexican Tamales recipe is popular for its unique flavors and spices.

To know more about the Blue Corn Tamale recipe, explore a series of options.

Native New Mexican grown and lava-wheel ground to a very fine flour consistency. It features a nut-like flavor derived from smoking with pinon wood. Perfect for breads, batters and a range of very special Southwestern treats. Just like our blue corn masa, ours is pure and NOT filled with other corns.

Created by the Spanish in 1620 in Old Town Albuquerque, these golden fried puffs of bread are favorites to accompany meals, serve stuffed or dusted with powdered sugar.

Known as the "food of all blessings", it is served at all the Fiestas, Native American dances and celebrations. It is a must for New Year's and perfect with chile dishes. Made from lime treated whole corn kernels.  Blue corn posole has the additional essential amino acid, known as lysine; making it most probaby the only food known with total nutrition.

Corn husks are necessary if you want to get the authentic flavor and appearance in tamales and casseroles for Southwestern specialties.  

Fragrant pinon scented air, bubbling pots of posole and tables groaning with fluffy, fresh tamales with spicy red chile sauce for ladeling over the tamales bring back wonderfully happy memories to any and all who have been in New Mexico at Holiday time.  There is nothing  as good as well prepared posole and delicious tamales to warm you up and spread good cheer.  Legend has it that eating posole brings all manner of life’s blessings.
