This is how we heat up tamales!.!.!. it's easy!. Get out your aluminum foil and rip off as much as you need to be able to wrap the amount you're heating!.!.!. you'll need 2, you wanna make sure it's wrapped well!. Wet and ring out some paper towels, leave them moist but not dripping!. You'll need a square baking dish or even a baking sheet will do!.!.!. place one piece of the foil on the pan, lay the towels on the foil, place the tamales on the towels, stacking them two high in a row then wrap the foil around them!.!.!. then use the other piece to rewrap !.!.!.this helps keep in the moisture!. I'm jealous, I want some tamales!! lolWww@FoodAQ@Com
Are they still wrapped in the corn husks!?
The way you should heat them up is to get a steamer basket, put it in with about a half inch of water in a big pot, cover and put it on high!.
It will steam the tamale, which is the best way I've found!. And the great thing about that method is that you can even do it with frozen tamales!.!.!.no need to thaw!. Just make sure they aren't sitting in the water - you want them to steam, not boil!.

sprinkle them w/ a few drops of water, wrap tightly in foil, and heat in a 300oF oven for about 20 min!.
Steaming on the stove top works nicely, too, if you have a steamer pan w/ lid!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

You can cook them on low in the oven for a few minutes, check them often to see if theyre done or not!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
our family puts them in a fry pan or skillet with a little bit of water until they are heated up again!.
