古巴冷知識： 不一樣的糉子，玉米做的
糉子在拉美地區也是很常見的一種食物，古巴也一樣，他們的糉子叫 tamale，是用攪碎的玉米做的，包在玉米葉裏面煮熟。
古巴糉子裏面會把豬肉和玉米攪在一起，還有很多調味料。
Now, typically, Tamales are made up with freshly ground corn and oodles of seasonings. This is all packed up in corn leaves, cooked and served up to enjoy. You’ll find these all over Cuba and it’s easily one of the best Cuban food and dishes that you have to try. The biggest difference between Cuban tamales and Mexican tamales is that in Cuban tamales, the meat (usually pork) is mixed in with the dough of the tamale, instead of being used as a filling. Cubans also use field corn to make their tamales, which is less sweet and more mealy than normal corn.
如今，玉米糉子通常是用新鮮的碎玉米和很多調味料做成的。把它包在玉米葉子裏煮熟，然後就可以享用了。你會發現古巴各地都有這種美食，而且這是古巴最好的食物和菜餚之一，你一定要嘗一嘗。古巴糉子和墨西哥糉子之間最大的區別是，古巴糉子通常是把豬肉和玉米粉面團混合在一起做成的，而不是把它用作餡料。古巴人還用大田玉米來做玉米糉子，與普通玉米相比，這種玉米不那麼甜，但卻更面。
