I must say that in my mother's kitchen when making pasteles there are definately NO DOGS ALLOWED!. That many people are not allowed in the kitchen. And the most important thing is that if you're helping, you better have your hair wrapped. You cannot get anywhere near that masa if your hair is exposed. Much respect to you for your post but I would not be eating your pasteles with that dog in the kitchen and your head not covered. Foo!
LOL --- It's like I'm at my Grandma's House making them --- the conversation and the unity in creating the Pasteles, is all part of the fun of eating them, together. Brings back so many good memories of my childhood. Thanks for posting this video. Stay Blessed ...
wow, i actually cried remembering the times i did pasteles with my mami & abuelita many years ago. treasure these times, they make beautiful memories...
many fond memories of cooking with mami..the "familia" all crowded in the smallest kitchen in the pj's.....even Millie our chihuahua was either underfoot or being carried by someone..and for those that don't know...'the bodega" is the shit!! you can get everything from toilet paper to an airplane ticket...ok so i'm exaggerating a little but bodegas are the shit!
Hah - Pasteles are a family favorite in our house.. however, hadn't made them in years (Years!!).. but always purchased them from someone.. this year my sisters and mother are attempting to do it on our own and this video just made my day looking forward to do it.
I am getting ready to make my pasteles for the Noche buena and check several videos in in youtube to refresh my memory. This was was a good one because it not only show u how to make pasteles but also the culture itself. I am not sure if I will use carrot for coloring though, but I will use achote. Thanks for sharing our culture and the pasteles making. Que ricos que son... me gustan que tengan pasa y aceitunas. Soy de las que digo que si no tienen pasa, no son pasteles(es solo my opinion)
If you can't find the professionally cut paper, use "Parchment" paper in rolls and cut them to size. You can find "Parchment" paper in most grocery stores. DO NOT use Wax Paper for this.
This was VERY helpful! We're using this video to make our pasteles for the first time. You guys are professional wrappers!!! Funny how the smallest kitchens hold the biggest and most delicious foods! God bless!

You guys reminded me of my younger days with my family on Christmas making those holiday FAVORITES!!!
I like Grandma's comment "If it tastes good I did it, if it tastes bad they did it!
These pasteles came out tasting as good as the ones my family used to make long, long ago.
Thanks for posting this WONDERFUL and HEARTWARMING video...
