Tradition. Its finally my turn to take over. I have been making Tamales with my Family since I was a little girl. They are work. I could never get them just right. After making 200 of them with my Mom, I think I finally got it. Some of my Family members were supposed to come and help..... Oh no, they showed up today to pick them up. Thanks Family. I did have one of my Best Girlfriend over. She has been asking for years to learn how. She helped for 3 hours. She loved it and she said they were the best Tamales she ever had. Thanks for your help Laurie! We started at 10 and we were finished at 5:30.
Here is the process:
YOU SOAK THE HUSKS
YOU MARINATE AND COOK THE PORK, PREPARE THE MASA AND CHOP THE VEGETABLES
HERE IS THE ASSEMBLY LINE UP

It was fun doing something like this with just my Mom.
Here I am with proof that I helped. I plan on being a little more ambitious next year and making a batch by myself. Merry Christmas everyone.
