OMG! Are you serious?! Tamales are one of the hardest Mexican dishes to make, atleast that is what I thought!!!!

They should be on a mag!

I like to eat tamales, seen a lot of them but only ever made them one time before. A "real" Mexican friend told me next time to use masa for tortillas instead of the masa for tamales next time for more texture... good to know. He also said I put too much celery in the meat.

I kinda liked seeing the word "lard" in there.

I buy it under the guise of making soap (which I DO) but good Mexican food HAS to have lard! Hey, fat is bad....at least make it the RIGHT fat!!! LOL

Nothing but lard makes the masa dough work up quite right. Tamales and pie crust is the only thing I use it for. I have some turkey ones in the freezer I made last month.

I am so impressed with your skills!.... both on Tamales and being able to despatch Lightning... Bravo!

Tamales are my weakness.

poor rooster

maybe it's just cause he didn't like you

or, I can't eat chicken, so I can't imagine eating one...I gotta go veggie or something haha

I hope my roo doesn't start that! We like him, even though he only mates heads. LOL So far he runs the other way when anyone comes near him but he's only about 8 months old yet too.
