    Mexico has different kinds of tamales. I’m from south Mexico and we have tamales like this one (we call them tamales rancheros). I didn’t know they had them in Belize but it makes sense since we’re so close. It’s so cool to share dishes within different countries.

      I was born in belize my grandmother was Mayan I know her family came from the Quintana Roo area i believe it's tied into the mayan culture I remember going to the villages when I was a boy and seeing bee's with out stingers that were kept in hollowed logs and used to collect honey and I also saw the same honey harvesting methods when driving through the Yucatan Peninsula and a lot of other similar foods and customs and I bet you the tamales rancheros have a similar taste to what my grandmother made✌

  • @nickib4590
    @nickib4590 3 года назад +28

    The tamal is wrapped up in banana leaves. That’s what gives it the unique flavor. It’s made with masa de maíz, red recado, and a bunch of other seasonings. The one that Eli is eating is called tamales de colado. It’s softerand wet. Tamales de tortillado is firmer and more “dry”. Thank you for showcasing our little country. My home 🥰🇧🇿 much love. When I saw “Belize” in the title, my jaw dropped 😱☺️

    Firstly, I’m glad Eli got to try all of our amazing food. I must say that for you to have the best tamales, chirmole and escabeche you must have them in the northern part of the country since those are dishes native to the north and part of our inherited Mexican culture. The same way sere and hudut are native to the southern part of the country 😄
    P.S. it’s spelled recado* not ricado 😅

Things just tend to be booming with flavor here and Im not only fortunate to have been growing up with all of it but also proud to have others try em and say such amazing things about us. These are really just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to Belizean staples. Thanks though for showcasing this though, was very heartwarming to see :D

    I love living and growing up in Belize. Such a beautiful country. But one thing I've learnt as I got older, and proven in this video with the food you tried, Belize is truly a multicultural country. The settlers and migrators from other countries enriched our dishes so much. It is not easy finding a specific dish that was originated in Belize. I'd love to hear more thoughts on this thou.
