Authentic Pork Tamales

1. Put some of the masa in the center of the corn husk.
2. With the back of a spoon, spread the bottom 2/3 of the corn husk evenly to the edges.
3. Line plenty of pork meat down the center.
4. Fold the side of the corn husks toward the center, overlap.
5. Now fold the top (without masa) down and set aside on a platter until ready to cook.
6. Continue these steps until all masa and pork filling is used up.

Steam Tamales

1. Bring 3-4 cups of reserved pork broth to boil in a steamer.
2. Place tamales with the folded side down in the steamer standing upright.
3. Cover tamales with moist corn husks and a clean moist dish towel.
4. Put the lid on the steamer and steam for 1 ½ hours or until husk can be easily peeled from the dough.
5. Add more broth as needed to continue steaming being careful not to pour broth on tamales.

Enjoy!
