Regarding cheese tamales ElerP, I've done it, I was messin around one time after making tamales, had some masa and ojas left, but no meat, so I grabbed things out of the fridge just to use up what was left and fill the olla. I had heard that cheese tamales were good, and I am a cheese lover, so I spread an oja, put in sliced cheddar and Monterrey jack, a dollop of salsa verde, and viola! They came out not too bad, but I still prefer pork with red sauce... errr red mole I mean.

I remember our first attempt at it alone, I left the house for two hours after working on them puppies most of the day, Mrs Thunder was in steaming process, she is better at that part, [stacking them using a special secret natural device in the middle] I figured since we'd make about 100 and they were coming out great, I could take a break and take care of something. When I came back home, the house was full of smoke and the alarm was chirping, she'd forgot to check the water level, burnt tamale smell for days
Originally Posted By Big Thunder LOL good luck Mrs ElderP, I'm so into this topic now I actually thought of calling my God daughter's grandmother in Tucson and asking if she'd make tamales this year, then ask her to part with a couple dozen LOL haven't gotten up the nerve yet, don't know why though? What Mexican grandmother wouldn't want to feed somebody her tamales??

I'm trying to figure out how to smuggle more out of my freezer to bring to DL. However, I'm risking my life as they are all spoken for. <sigh>
