Don, Did you prepare the meat in the instantpot as well as the final steaming?

These were Spicy bean tamales, and I did cook the beans the day before in the Instant Pot. I also have a Tamale King press that makes the tamales really fast.

The Only way we have made tamales is in the pressure cooker. What is the difference on the stovetop that makes them better?

Don, many use the roasters (like the one's they serve the German noodles in), using racks and a bit of water to steam them.

The masa, try it both ways, and perhaps you will like one way better than the other too...

Actually instead of masa I have been using corn flour for good results with the outer layer.

My 3 quart Ultra arrived today. Too late to make something in it for dinner but I plan to make a batch of creole cabbage with left over turkey tomorrow night. I am impressed with the quality of the Ultra. :thumbsup:

Size looks good for the wife and I on a school night. Lots of soups in its future :thumbsup:

Wife had chicken and dumplings ready for me when I got home from work. I can't say it tasted any better or worse than the stove top version so I asked if it was easier in the Instantpot and she said definitely! So for that meal, Instantpot won again.

Did the maiden voyage with the Ultra 3 quart. Very nice unit, I think I will keep it :D

Good size for a quick meal for 2.
