Until
then, I couldn’t help but notice the New York Times has discovered the concept
of tamales at Christmas-time.
I’M
NOT SURE I’d care much for the Venezuelan take on tamales (I can do without the
idea of olives AND raisins). But it was intriguing to read about – even though
much of what they had to “report” was old news to the growing Latino population
with our ethnic origins in Mexico.
So
read on, while I try to satiate my hunger by searching for a decent tamale or
two.
And
as for anyone who suggests I try to eat one of those Tom Tom brand things that
you find in the supermarket (but which I always avoid), I’m not sure whether to
despise you for such a vile suggestion or pity you for not being more aware in
a culinary sense!
Just
like that celebrity chef on the Top Chef program who apparently thinks tamales
and tacos are the same thing.
