I grew up in Natchitoches and my parents/brother still live in the Robeline/Many area. I’ve really been craving some Zwolle Tamales lately and thought I would try to make some. Are you open to sharing your recipe? I’ve noticed that several commenters requested it. If so, could you please send it to me?

As a side note, my mom is a big quilter. I’ll tell her to check out your blog.

I WAS BORNED IN ZWOLLE, LOUISIANA VERY CLOSE E.B’S ZWOLLE HOT TAMALES, MAYBE ABOUT 1/2 MILE. FROM IN THEIR LOCATION. THEY ARE BEST I HAVE EVER EATEN. HAVING LIVED IN LOS ANGELES FOR THE LAST 32 YEARS I HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIND ANY THAT COMES CLOSE. I ORDER SOMETIMES TWENTY DOZEN WHEN I VISIT SO THAT I CAN KEEP THEM FROZEN & ENJOY THEM ANYTIME I WANT.
LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THEM

I’m so hungry – why do you put all that yummy stuff on here? I want hot tamales and chocolate chip cookies. Can’t you just stick to sewing? do you even make your own cheese? Love you!!

I’ve lived in Zwolle for the past 38 years. I’ve never made a tamale but know where to get the best ones!

I am a “Gringo” when it comes to hot Mexican food, but the Mexican lady who makes my tamales knows that and makes them mild for me..Actually, I’m a “gringo” on any hot food although most of my family -The hotter the better. So I make a pretty good HOT salsa and they doctor their stuff up with that. Wade, youngest son, always asks if the made any “spagetti sauce” yet-he just trys to get to me over hot sauce. Hugs, Bobbie
