The Art of Cuisine

We are having a tamale making party this Friday!

 It has been a while. By popular demand, my customers have asked me to make them again. It is time to make tamales again. They go fast so order now!

The Art of Cuisine is making Organic Low Fat Gourmet Tamales again this Friday. These parties are so much fun for my crew and I. We just have a blast doing them; they are a lot of work but well worth it. Most people are nervous to try my Healthy Organic Tamales. Until they try them, and I love the reaction. You do not notice these are healthy for you. They are very moist and melt in your mouth. They do not leave you feeling tired or that heavy feeling. They are even Heart Friendly. Now how many tamales can you say are that and taste good! 

I am making more Gourmet Pork by popular demand. They are more traditional and so are my chicken tamales. I sold out of my Gourmet Pork tamales in just a few days last month. Therefore, I am making another batch of those traditional ones. I will be making Gourmet Chicken tamales and some not so traditional ones too. I will be making Lamb and my Vegetarian Italian Tamales that will become a new menu item if my clients like them. The lamb tamales are made for my Gluten Free Plado diet clients. The Italian Tamales are nothing Mexican about them. They are made with seasoned polenta, eggplant, zucchini, carrots, parmesan cheese, and lots of other veggies in a Italian tomato sauce. They will just surprise you how good they are. If you like, Italian food then you will love these. Even meat eaters love these veggie tamales. Plus, at Christmas time they make a great side dish. Hey, what a veggie dish all bundled up in one. You could get your daily servings of veggies in one of these tamales. I might make more gluten free tamales if enough people show interest in them. Email me and let me know if you are interested in more varieties of gluten free tamales and I will make another batch of different meats if enough people show interest.

One of the secret ingredients is Olive Oil.

These are all healthy made with olive oil instead of lard or shorting. Healthy for your heart and made with Organic meat and veggies. All of the Tamales have hidden veggies that most don't even notice but the veggies give flavor and vitamins. They came out the moistest tamales I have ever made and I think I have perfected the recipe. Try some and let me know what you think. I guarantee they are one of the best you have had.  I have restaurants wanting these tamales and my recipe.

No, I am not giving this recipe out. If you want something close my The Art of Cuisine Cookbook (above link) has a Beef Tamale Recipe and a Low Fat Chicken that are crowd pleasers and close to what I am making. I have changed the recipe and perfected it more and made it even more healthy.

I will do pictures and post them my blog for all of you to see the fun tamale party. So, check back next week and I will have more pictures up.

Gourmet Tamales if anyone wants any they are $20.00/Dozen
