unwrapped tamale with platter of wrapped tamales

Making tamales is a Christmas Eve tradition among many Hispanic families and other folks in the Southwest.

Yooper Fantasy Stew

Yooper Fantasy Stew is like a naked pasty, but spicy and healthy.  (That’s PAA-sty, the Cornish handpies filled with stew, not PAY-sties, part of many strippers’ wardrobes.)  My family always got pasties when we went to the Upper Peninsula (U.P.) of Michigan. My Aunt Mattie was a Yooper who ran tourist cabins, was president of […]
