Some of the best food you’ll find in the city of San Antonio surfaces each spring during Fiesta. Certainly count these Smoked Picadillo Duck Tamales from Boudro’s/Zinc Executive Chef Manny Elizondo among the top tastiest prospects in town. Goodtaste went inside the kitchen at Zinc with our star chef for a quick tutorial on assembly…
Spread your massa evenly on the husk and season with pepper. Next, it’s time to add Chef Manny’s homemade picadillo: smoked duck, sautéed onions, guajillo chiles and tomatoes finely chopped. Watch our short cooking demo to see how to properly roll, tuck and tie your tamale.
Steam for 1 hr – 1 1/2 hrs and plate with banana leaves for festive presentation. Our tamales are dressed in a delicious ancho sauce with sour cream to balance out the flavor. Did we mention Boudro’s is a great venue to catch the river parades? Pull up a chair and enjoy some awesome cuisine in the process!
