Tamales


I've wanted to try making tamales for a long time.
I was intimidated.
I tried it tonight.
They were good!
Very good if you ask those at the table that know where their dinner comes from!

When I was little, I told my parents I wanted to be a Mexican when I grew up because I loved Mexican food so much. I think I'm one step closer tonight.

exsqueeze me, Is that scrapbook ribbon holding those husks on?

why yes it is ribbon; when your table is covered in sewing supplies, why buy real food tying string??? And, this recipe said to just wrap them in parchment paper instead of husks. It was really easy.
