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.

refried beans. Top with your favorite pasta sauce.
