Instructions for FROZEN tamales steaming. These don't have to be thawn. These can go straight from the freezer to the pot. 1. Steaming pots are available at food4less or Mexican supermarkets like Northgate or Vallarta's. ... 2. Add water and leave about 1 inch space bewteen the water and the platform/basket 3. Stack the tamales vertically with the open side of the tamal upward so the filling will not spill 4. Steam for 90 minutes 5. Add more water to the pot at minute 60 6. At minute 90, open the pot a little bit so some steam is release. 7. At minute 90, put your burner on low, so these stay warm as you serve them Merry Christmas!

Dear customers, Postmates, Grubhub and other companies have been posting our menu without our consent. We don’t have an agreement with them, and yet they are processing orders that we can’t fulfill because we are not aware of them and they receive payments. Please be careful. Only Hungr and doordash are approved by Tamales Jovita. We have been calling these companies a few times to remove our menu and they post it back

Tamales Jovita will be CLOSED this Labor day 9/07/2020. Monday Holidays are usually slow for us specially with this heat, and we will take the opportunity to rest. We might take some days off this month to rest a little bit more as we will be working longer hours in October, and we didn’t take our summer break. I have not make my mind yet, but we surely need some days to rest before Winter craziness

I missed this show last year and now very happy that I get to see these talented girls. Some were my students when I volunteered at Tierra Caliente Academy of Arts. Very proud

Front still work in progress Talavera tiles I love blue

Thank you City of Escondido and Downtown Business Association

Mother Jovita and I will be taking a break before the Holidays. I thought we could make it to the end-of-the year without a break, but my sanity doesn’t think so. We usually start getting busy in October. We will rest and come back ready to rumble!

Our tamales are available for whole sale to other businesses outside of Escondido. Business must have a permit from the Health Department and a seller’s number. @ Tamales Jovita

Dear Customers, We will open today at normal time 11am. Friends had expressed concern about today's protests. I am optimistic that today's protest will be peaceful as it was Monday's and Wednesday's. We will closed early if we see disturbance, but I think everything will be okay. Street parking might be an issue, but there are two spots behind our building where you can park. Thank you!
