Ingredients
  • 12 large shrimp
  • 2 Spanish chorizo sausages
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 4 bamboo skewers, soaked in water
  • Lime Chimichurri:
  • 2 cups fresh parsley and/or cilantro, firmly packed

  • 2 tablespoons chopped onion
  • ½ cup olive oil
  • 3 tablespoon lime juice (optional)
  • Kosher salt and red pepper flakes to taste
Preparation
  1. Slice the chorizo into ½-inch thick slices. Alternate chorizo slices into the crook of each shrimp and thread throughout a skewer. Set aside while you make chimichurri.
  2. Make chimichurri by blending all of the ingredients above in a blender until somewhat smooth.

  • 8 ears fresh corn
  • 1 stick butter
  • ½ cup hot sauce, preferably Frank’s RedHot®
  • Celery salt
  • 1 cup finely crumbled blue cheese
Preparation
  1. Pre-heat grill on high.

  3. Place the butter and the hot sauce in a small saucepan and cook on medium heat until the butter is melted. Whisk to combine. Set aside and keep warm.
  4. Arrange the corn on the grill grate and roast, turning as needed with tongs, until the corn is lightly browned in patches, 3 to 5 minutes per side. Transfer the corn to a disposable foil pan, rimmed baking sheet, or platter. Working over the pan, brush the corn on all sides with the butter-hot sauce mixture.
  5. Sprinkle lightly with celery salt, then with the crumbled cheese. Serve immediately.

This recipe takes the traditional Mexican Masa tamales and adds the fall season's favorite ingredients: Pumpkin, ginger, nutmeg and raisins
Author:
Cuisine: Mexican
Serves: 40
Ingredients
  • 40 To 60 dried corn husks
  • 7 Cups maseca corn flour
  • 3 Cups packed brown sugar
  • 2 Teaspoon cinnamon
  • 2 Teaspoon Salt
  • 2 Teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1 Teaspoon ground cloves
  • 1 Teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 2 29-ounce cans of pumpkin puree
  • 4 Sticks of butter, melted
  • 2 Cups of warm milk
  • 2 Cups of walnuts, chopped
  • 12 Ounces of raisins, a
  • About 2 1⁄2 cups Fresh white cheese/queso fresco (optional)
Preparation
  1. Fill a large bowl with warm water and soak corn husks until softened, about 30 minutes.
  2. In an extra large bowl add Maseca corn flour and the rest of the dry ingredients. Mix together making sure that all of the clumps are broken up with your fingers. Then add all of the wet ingredients and once again, use your hands to mix the corn flour. Add more water as needed until you achieve the consistency of peanut butter. Fold in the walnuts and raisins.
  3. Assemble the tamales by using a rubber spatula to spread 1⁄2 cup to 1 cup of dough mixture onto the corn husk, depending on the size of the corn husk. The spread should cover about two thirds of the husk, away from the pointed end, making sure you leave some space on each side to fold. Gently fold one side of the corn husk to the other end and fold up the pointed end across. Lay each tamale fold-side down. There should be an open end to each tamale.
  4. Once the tamales are folded, fill the IMUSA TAMALE STEAMER with water just below the fill line and place the steam tray on the rack. Carefully place each tamale standing up on the steam tray without overloading it and bring water to a simmer. Steam with the lid on for 90 minutes.
  5. Remove each tamale with tongs and let rest for a few minutes before serving it as a sweet side-dish or with grated queso fresco. MAKES 40-60 TAMALES.
