December 19Dec 19 So we ordered some tamales for Christmas, but they don't ship any sauce to go with them. In year's past, we always just put Wolf brand chili on top or eat them plain or with salsa. Does anyone have a good recipe to top the tamales?
December 19Dec 19 Jk. Love me some chili and tamales. I just made a batch of tamales the other day and am about to cook up a tamale omelette for breakfast.

We have a friend whose wife sells them every Thanksgiving. The sauce we got with them this year was amazing. Spicy as hell. I asked about it, and he said she wings it, but it's close to this My Spanish barely kicked in about 30 seconds in, but damn-it, I'm going to self-translate this shit. It's like a mix of spicy raw green and spicy creamy green sauce. As good or better than the sum of its parts. Edited Saturday at 01:06 AM5 days by dcbc
