Tradition

The art of making tamales during the holidays is a tradition that many Mexican families in the Texas and all over the world hold near and dear to their heart. It’s a tradition passed down from generation to generation. A group of North Texas women who call themselves Las Tamaleras are keeping the tradition alive.

The story is well known in northern Mexico and South Texas, where a brief wave of hysteria surrounding one instance of the legend erupted in the 70s.
