在墨西哥,Tamales (用玉米粉包肉蒸成的面团),和我們的糉,非常相似。一般烹煮前,先在玉米壳或芭蕉叶包裹,取决于他们来自哪個地区。有甜或咸味的,最常见的馅料是猪肉和鸡肉,在红色或绿色的醬料或Mole (墨西哥传统醬料)。另一种非常传统的是混合粉红色糖的玉米粉,馅料是葡萄干或者其他干果,那就是甜的tamal(tamal dulce)。這是墨西哥人最钟爱的传统食品之一,在早餐和晚餐吃。几乎在全国每一个地区,都有其特色tamal。


常看到街头小贩的巨大的蒸爐,裡面就放著热腾腾的Tamales。
在墨西哥城,往往tamal會被放在小麦面包中,這叫 torta tamal(也称为guajolota)。




芭蕉叶多用于Oaxaca, Chiapas, Veracruz等热带地区。他們的玉米粉蒸肉,多是正方形的。
今天,在圣诞节、死亡节期间和墨西哥独立日的庆祝活动,也经常吃Tamales。
