Tamales are a Mexican holiday tradition. The women and daughters gather and make a few hundred tamales and they're eaten at many meals before/during/after Christmas. Wrapping the masa, cheese and (sometimes) meat in corn husks is a laborious affair, so the women spend most of the day making them.
I tamales and I Los Angeles.
