A spicy, chile-laden filling is rolled in corn husks and then steamed in a flavorful broth. These tamales do take some time, but invite friends over and make it a communal effort or do it in stages, time permitting. The filling can be made one day, then refrigerated for up to several days before rolling and steaming the tamales. Once cooked, the tamales hold well in the refrigerator for up to several days and can also be frozen and then microwaved to reheat.
