I don’t really have a question but I want to talk about noodles, please. Is a tamale a noodle or a sandwich?
Hello there, please edit your title to include a question :) See rule 1
thank you. i did.
Technically, a tamale is a calzone according to the cube rule.
I understand the cube rule, I just don’t think I can really subscribe to it. Calling a bowl of lucky charms nachos is inaccurate, it’s clearly a soup.
Exactly, cube rule is inconsistent and needlessly complicated. Both are salads
woah, this is why i have reached out to The Internet.
Does this mean I can get thin crust tamales in New York, and grease death tamales in Chicago
In L.A., there’s everything from grease death and masa bombs to thin crust and dry. Husk wrapped or banana leaf wrapped. Savory or sweet. We got it all.
I love how “toast” includes sushi as an example but sushi doesn’t
What the…
Isn’t the whole point of “toast” that it’s bread that is toasted? How can sushi, an undeniable raw food be “toast”? I’ll accept the cube rule, but toast needs a new classification.,
I’d say a tamale is a dumpling.
nixtamalized corn dumpling: this is proper and you are righteous
closer to a pie, as pies as have filling.
noodles don’t have filling
what is ravioli? And, is ravioli a dumpling?
I would say ravioli is not a noodle, and could be called a dumpling, yes.
David Chang argues that ravioli are dumplings on Ugly Delicious.
I’m inclined to agree in that dumplings and ravioli are the same general idea implemented by different culinary traditions.
A tamale is most definitely corn bread
stuffed corn bread? but let’s also make the masa distinction
Depends on the country of origin
I am in United State, Southwestern Region
The only place that might call themselves a United State is Texas.
I am New Mexico.
Okay Texas. Don’t go trying to annex another Mexico again. We don’t need a New Alamo.
we should just take over west texas. I mean, HEB is pretty good and you have a lot more meth than we do.
A tamale is a pop tart, obviously
I mean kinda? We need to decide how a noodle and a dumpling differ.
https://cuberule.com/ according to cube rule it is a calzone
That rule is all kinds of disturbing lol
Turduckens should be sushi or calzone, not salad.
I created a new video: What is a Noodle? Disclaimer: I didn’t.
I am angry at the very notion that a tamale could be a noodle.
This type of food taxonomy is always fascinating and disturbing, as it tends to spawn even more unhinged classifications (ravioli is a dumpling. A bowl of cereal is a salad).
That being said, the most politically neutral take would be that tamales are a pie.
As a Mexican, I am very disturbed by this question. It’s not stupid (that doesn’t exist in this community), it’s just disturbing xD
No, a tamale is not a noodle. Noodles don’t have fillings, are longer, and thinner. It’s like asking if ravioli is a noodle.
As someone from the U.S. who grew up eating Mexican food in Texas, I agree. It is disturbing. The filling is very important to a tamal. They aren’t bendy or thin either. Noodles are thin and bendy
i am new mexico af and i respect your carne guisada, but really. NM food kills it. Please come over to Santa Fe and check out green chile Carne Adovada. “Texas” lol
