AMY'S Organic Black Bean Tamale Verde

IN 1987, WHEN AMY WAS BORN, WE FOUND WE HAD LITTLE TIME TO PREPARE THE QUALITY FOOD WE USUALLY ATE. REALIZING THERE WERE OTHERS LIKE US, WE ESTABLISHED AMY'S KITCHEN TO PRODUCE CONVENIENT, DELICIOUS MEALS FOR PEOPLE WHO LOVE GOOD FOOD BUT ARE OFTEN TOO BUSY TO COOK. AMY'S MEALS ARE MADE WITH THE HIGHEST QUALITY INGREDIENTS AND PREPARED WITH THE SAME CAREFUL ATTENTION IN OUR KITCHEN AS YOU WOULD USE IN YOUR HOME. NO MEAT, FISH, SHELLFISH, POULTRY, EGGS, OR PEANUTS ARE EVER USED IN AMY'S PRODUCTS.

WHEN AMY'S FAMILY FIRST DISCOVERED THE TAMALE VERDE AT THEIR FAVORITE RESTAURANT IN PUERTO ESCONDIDO, MEXICO, THEY COULDN'T BELIEVE HOW GOOD IT TASTED, AND KEPT ORDERING IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN. AMY'S DAD HOPED THAT WE COULD RE-CREATE THE RECIPE FOR THIS WONDERFUL AUTHENTIC MEXICAN DISH AND OFFER IT TO AMY'S CUSTOMERS. THAT WAS EASIER SAID THAN DONE. IT TOOK THREE YEARS TO PERFECT... TO GROW ORGANIC TOMATILLOS (WHICH ARE THE HEART OF THE SALSA VERDE) AND TO MAKE THE SALSA SO THAT IT WAS JUST RIGHT. ALL THE INGREDIENTS ARE CAREFULLY SELECTED AND PREPARED. THE ORGANIC MASA (GROUND AND COOKED CORN) IS POURED ONTO INDIVIDUAL PARCHMENTS, FILLED WITH TENDER ORGANIC BLACK BEANS AND A MIXTURE OF VEGETABLES, CHILES AND JALAPEÑOS, AND THEN FOLDED AND STEAMED. THE TAMALES ARE THEN UNWRAPPED BY HAND, TOPPED WITH OUR DELICIOUS VERDE SAUCE AND SERVED WITH A SIDE OF SPANISH RICE PREPARED WITH ORGANIC BROWN RICE. THIS DELIGHTFUL TAMALE DINNER IS A FAVORITE THROUGHOUT MEXICO AND WILL BECOME A FAVORITE OF YOURS AS WELL.
