Linda,
As a side note, Mexico is not considered 3rd world. In fact, Mexico
is probably the most economically progressive Latin American country.
While I am not an expert in economic classification, I have traveled to various
countries in Africa which were true 3rd word applications were provided - and
the difference from these countries and Mexico were enormous! Perhaps
someone more knowledgeable can expound on this...??
In Michoacan, I think I had those tamales - they were called tamales
ochepos (spelling is phonetic)- certainly not the dulce tamales that I was
accustomed to here in the states - we were provided these tamales for breakfast,
and they were divine, but I didn't know they were made of corn oil - now you
might have answered my question about lard.....Maybe I should try using corn oil
instead of lard to make them? Any recipes out there?
Esperanza
