Reviewed Traditional Pork Tamales
"I used this recipe and it follows most guide lines for Tamales, except the Spuds and Carrots.
You have to watch out for the masa mix. It is suppose to have the consistancey of peanut butter. I never use vegetable shortening or even melt it, I use lard. Also, I get my Masa from a Mexican Market, only the Masa mix with no shortening or Lard added, I do that on my own. Usually 2 part Masa to one part shortening/lard. Taste your Masa also, I know, disgusting but it has never let me down. See Ya
