古巴冷知识： 不一样的粽子，玉米做的
粽子在拉美地区也是很常见的一种食物，古巴也一样，他们的粽子叫 tamale，是用搅碎的玉米做的，包在玉米叶里面煮熟。
古巴粽子里面会把猪肉和玉米搅在一起，还有很多调味料。
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，玉米粽子通常是用新鲜的碎玉米和很多调味料做成的。把它包在玉米叶子里煮熟，然后就可以享用了。你会发现古巴各地都有这种美食，而且这是古巴最好的食物和菜肴之一，你一定要尝一尝。古巴粽子和墨西哥粽子之间最大的区别是，古巴粽子通常是把猪肉和玉米粉面团混合在一起做成的，而不是把它用作馅料。古巴人还用大田玉米来做玉米粽子，与普通玉米相比，这种玉米不那么甜，但却更面。
