The Best Pork Tamales Recipe Tutorial S2 Ep202

Place the pork shoulder in a large pan and add plenty of water to almost cover it, leaving the fat side facing up.

Sprinkle salt on top of the pork.

Cover the pan and cook at 250°F (121°C) until tender, allowing the fat to render down and flavor the meat.

Prepare a chili paste by rehydrating the guajillo and chipotle chilies and blending them with the pasilla, arbol, and ancho chilies, lime juice, cumin, and garlic.

Soak the corn husks in hot water before making the tamales.
