: Just saw this recipe in today s _L.A. Times_. I ve been looking for
something like this. It explains that in pre-Columbian times, the
Mayans didn t use lard in their tamales. change anything in this
recipe and haven t tried it yet, but it looked like it should be
shared! The recipe apparently comes from "Americas First Cuisines"
