  1                    Basic masa dough recipe
 18                    Corn husks or parchment paper

 Follow instructions for making masa dough in
 "Tamales: Basic Procedure"  Gently roll each 1" piece
 of dough into a thick cigar shape. Place dough
 lengthwise on one edge of a softened corn husk and
 wrap, leaving one side open. Place tamales on stacked
 steamer trays.

 Cover and steam for 40-45 minutes over rapidly boiling
 water. Add more water to the pot as needed to create
 steam. Remove from steamer and serve warm.

 ** Hints: Dip pones in soup, black bean sauce or
 refried beans. Top with your favorite pasta sauce.
