Make a well in the middle of the dough and gradually add warmed stock from the protein you prepared and the chile sauce. Wear gloves and continue massaging together. You can also mix using a KitchenAid, in batches. Keep adding liquid until it's not sticking to your fingers. Make a small ball and in a glass of water see if it floats. If it floats, it's ready.

Easiest Tamales Ever Easiest Tamales Ever
I love mexican food but tamales can be so time consuming! So I did what I could and cut down the time, and also just made it easier in general. Still time consuming but not as much. Im not a huge meat eater but you can eliminate my filling for a meat filling if you have your own recipe. You can also use corn husks if you want more presentation and more work lol.
