Where you go, I will go; where you live, I will live. Your people will be my people for your God is my God.

Tamales

Started from hard dried corn. 

Cooked with cal, allowed to cool, and washed. 

Taken to a local miller. 

Mixed with lard, salt, and chicken broth.  

Stuffed into corn stalks and filled with vegetables and cheese or chicken and salsa verde

Placed and cooked in a pressure cooker.  

Yum.  Nothing quite like it. 

[Note:  no pictures where taken.  my hands where too busy and I was enjoying chatting away with the woman of my family here as we worked.  to see what the process looks like, come on down for a visit!]
