hot TAMALES
My child volunteered me to make tamales for his entire Spanish class. He then neglected to schedule being home to assist me. (Fear not; I didn’t strangle him.) I love tamales, and I love making tamales. The smells are earthy, the masa is fluffy & husks are the perfect wrapper. I often make the ones that are tied at each end because I prefer the masa to filling ration. They are more common in north Mexico and Texas. And whaddya know… this next Call also hails from Texas. This is a prestigious opportunity for representational artists…
