The zacahuil as a theme of Mexican cuisine, is the largest tamale in the world, measuring more than five feet and can feed up to 70 people. It is originally from the Huasteca.
Its main ingredients are the food of the gods, that is: El Maiz, which in pre-Hispanic times used to be considered more valuable than gold, even now it is very expensive hahaha, and also at that time it used to prepare the chicken filling or pork.
Maiz (Corn)
Real guys, if you come to the Husateca I recommend them a lot, in my opinion it's a delicious dish ... I've eaten it in the state of Veracruz, San Luis Potosi and Hidago, which are the three Huastecas ... and each one of them these regions have their season, and very important to know! tastes more delicious even when you accompany it with its jalapeño peppers in vinegar, A true Wonder.
