The only homemade I have had, came from two different Mexican women I know. Both were great. ....I'm slow cooking the meat today, and putting them together tomorrow.....Thanks for the recipe!

I wonder why other Tamale recipes call for steaming the tamales for 1-2 hours, when your's recommends 15-20 minutes. I'll try one of the 20-minute ones, for quality control purposes. I'm sure they'll be delicious. They smell really good! I'm steaming my first batch of these right now.

As for the husks, you can use fresh ones in season, or save the ones from your fresh corn during the corn season, and dry them. Then you just have to soak them when you want to make tamales.

My parents have made them in the past and now my husband and I are starting the tradition. I am working on the tamales today and am BEYOND excited to eat them. Thank you for the beautiful story. It really touches my heart and makes me think fondly of my grandma who passed away 4 years ago. I will let you know how they turn out and I am sure the recipe will be delicious!!
