I'd never even eaten tamales before making this, let alone made them. So believe me, if I can do it, you can. Though you will have to wait for the book!
Terry promises more variations, including dessert tamales, to come and I am well excited about that. For now feast your eyes on these babies - Black Bean Sweet Potato Tamales.
I have a bunch (well some) of Latina testing photos to share, and instead of doing them all in one monster post which will bore the pants of everyone I'm going to drip feed them to you, and ease myself back into this blogging nonsense. So stay tuned, and I do apologise for the neglect.
