- TAMALES
-
- [Illustration]
-
-
- Tamales are a mixture of meat or fowl made hot with
- chiles and wrapped in corn-husks. In preparing the
- dough or _nixtamal_, unless scalded meal is used for
- a substitute, it is necessary to prepare the shelled
- corn with lime-water. The Mexicans grind the corn
- prepared in this way, on the metate, and instead of a
- mortar use the _molcajete_ and _lejolote_.
-
- To prepare the corn, cover it with water, add the
- lime-water and boil until the husks slip off easily
- between the fingers, then wash in cold water until
- perfectly white. The lime-water is made by adding an
- ounce of common lime to a quart of water; stir well
- and let settle; when clear, drain off the water for
- use. One quart of lime-water prepared in this way will
- do for a pound of corn. For the wrapping, cut off the
- inside leaves of the corn-husks about an inch from
- the stalk end and boil in clear water until perfectly
- clean. Tear a few in narrow strips to use for tying
- the ends; dry the rest and rub them over with a cloth
- dipped in hot lard.

- corn-meal; work in a big lump of butter and add water
- until like biscuit dough. Have ready, as directed, a
- pile of the soft inner leaves or husks of green corn.
- Take a lump of dough about the size of an egg; pat it
- out flat, put a tablespoonful of the meat on it and
- roll for the inner husk. Then put on the outer husks

- six chile peppers, boil soft and then put through a
- colander to separate from the skin. Boil a chicken
- tender and set aside half of the well-seasoned broth;
- the rest, with the chicken, thicken with part of
- the ground corn and add the pepper-pulp and three
- tablespoonfuls of fine marjoram. For the batter, take
- the remainder of the broth and ground corn and mix
- into it a tablespoonful of olive-oil; season with salt
- and make the dough just thick enough to spread. These
- proportions will make fifteen tamales.

- degrees the beaten yolks of six eggs; beat together
- until thick and creamy, then sift in ten ounces of
- flour, stirring all the time. Whisk up the whites of
- the six eggs, and gently, but thoroughly, stir these
- in, adding sufficient milk to make a medium thick
- batter; flavor with vanilla. Bake in waffle-irons,
- well greased and hot. Butter each waffle as it comes
- from the iron, and dust with fine sugar mixed with a
- little powdered cinnamon.
-
-
- MIGAS
-
- Soak slices of stale bread and squeeze dry. Put
- plenty of fresh lard in a frying-pan and when boiling
- hot put in an onion chopped fine, some ground chile
- and a pinch of sweet marjoram. Lay the slices of
- bread in this with plenty of fresh crumbled goats'
- cheese, and fry for ten minutes, stirring to cook on
- all sides. Remove to a hot plate and cover with fresh
- grated cheese, stoned ripe olives and hard-boiled eggs
- chopped fine.
-
-
- MOLLETE
-
- Beat together a cupful of cold boiled squash, one
- of milk, and two eggs. Sift together a cupful of
- corn-meal, one of flour, a half-teaspoonful of salt
- and two of baking-powder. Mix all together into a
- smooth batter and bake on both sides in little cakes
- on a hot griddle. Serve hot with sugar sprinkled on
- each.
-
-
- PAN RELLENO
-
- Chop onion very fine and mix with mild cheese cut
- in small pieces in the proportion of one-third onion
- to two-thirds cheese; add a few ripe olives stoned
- and cut in half, and a pinch of _oregano_. Mix this
- together with a dressing made of oil and vinegar:
- two-thirds oil and one-third vinegar. Cut off the top
- of a small loaf of French bread the long way, dig out
- the center and fill with the cheese mixture. Put the
- crust back on top and cover with the mixture and bake
- in a rather quick oven.
-
-
- POLENTA
-
- Into three pints of boiling water put a teaspoonful
- of salt and a tablespoonful of butter. When boiling,
- sift in slowly, stirring constantly, about a pint of
- Indian meal and boil a half-hour. Have ready, hot, a
- cupful of good gravy, and one of tomato sauce, made
- with chile. Put a layer of the cooked Indian meal in
- the bottom of a baking-dish, then the sauce and gravy,
- sprinkled with a little grated cheese. Fill the dish
- with these alternate layers and bake for half an hour.
- Serve hot with a little extra chile.
-
-
- PUEBLECILLO
-
- Sauter little half-inch squares of chicken or calves'
- liver in olive-oil over a brisk fire; when nicely
- browned, add some thick tomato sauce and some leftover
- gravy. Into this cut up half-inch lengths of cooked
- macaroni, mushrooms, and a few olives cut small.
- Season highly and work in a big lump of butter. Serve
- on toasted squares.
-
-
- TORTAS SERRANO
-
- Beat six eggs together until light; add a half-cupful
- of flour and an onion chopped fine. Stir in lightly
- one teaspoonful of baking-powder and a pinch of salt.
- Cut a half-pound of mild cream cheese into thin
- squares and add to the egg mixture. Have ready a
- kettle of hot lard. Take up one piece of cheese at a
- time with as much of the egg mixture as the spoon will
- hold, and drop into the fat and fry until brown. Serve
- with hot chile sauce.
-
-
- TORTILLA DE HUEVOS
-
- Chop a small clove of garlic and fry in olive-oil; add
- a cupful of mushrooms, cut small, and a half-cupful of
- stewed tomatoes. Season with salt and pepper. Make a
- plain omelet and just before folding it over, spread
- this on top. Serve immediately.

-of this license, apply to copying and distributing Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic works to protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm

-and may not be used if you charge for an eBook, except by following
-the terms of the trademark license, including paying royalties for use
-of the Project Gutenberg trademark. If you do not charge anything for

-easy. You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose such as creation
-of derivative works, reports, performances and research. Project
-Gutenberg eBooks may be modified and printed and given away--you may

-Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this

-
-1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the

-of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual
-works in the collection are in the public domain in the United
-States. If an individual work is unprotected by copyright law in the
-United States and you are located in the United States, we do not
-claim a right to prevent you from copying, distributing, performing,
-displaying or creating derivative works based on the work as long as
-all references to Project Gutenberg are removed. Of course, we hope
-that you will support the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting
-free access to electronic works by freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm
-works in compliance with the terms of this agreement for keeping the
-Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with the work. You can easily
-comply with the terms of this agreement by keeping this work in the
-same format with its attached full Project Gutenberg-tm License when
-you share it without charge with others.
-
-1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
-what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are
-in a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States,
-check the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this
-agreement before downloading, copying, displaying, performing,
-distributing or creating derivative works based on this work or any
-other Project Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no
-representations concerning the copyright status of any work in any
-country other than the United States.
-
-1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
-
-1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other
-immediate access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear
-prominently whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work

-phrase "Project Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed,
-performed, viewed, copied or distributed:
-
- This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere in the United States and
- most other parts of the world at no cost and with almost no
- restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or re-use it
- under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included with this
- eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org. If you are not located in the
- United States, you will have to check the laws of the country where
- you are located before using this eBook.
-
-1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is
-derived from texts not protected by U.S. copyright law (does not
-contain a notice indicating that it is posted with permission of the
-copyright holder), the work can be copied and distributed to anyone in
-the United States without paying any fees or charges. If you are
-redistributing or providing access to a work with the phrase "Project
-Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the work, you must comply
-either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 or
-obtain permission for the use of the work and the Project Gutenberg-tm
-trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
-
-1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
-with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
-must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any
-additional terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms
-will be linked to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works
-posted with the permission of the copyright holder found at the
-beginning of this work.
-
-1.E.4. Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
-License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
-work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
-

-other than "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official
-version posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm website

- agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the Project
- Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments must be paid
- within 60 days following each date on which you prepare (or are

- you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
- does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
- License. You must require such a user to return or destroy all
- copies of the works possessed in a physical medium and discontinue
- all use of and all access to other copies of Project Gutenberg-tm
- works.

-
-1.F.
-
-1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
-effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
-works not protected by U.S. copyright law in creating the Project
-Gutenberg-tm collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm
-electronic works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may
-contain "Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate
-or corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other
-intellectual property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or
-other medium, a computer virus, or computer codes that damage or
-cannot be read by your equipment.
-
-1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
-of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
-Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
-liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
-fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
-LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
-PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH 1.F.3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE

-DAMAGE.
-
-1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
-defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
-receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
-written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
-received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium
-with your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you
-with the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in
-lieu of a refund. If you received the work electronically, the person
-or entity providing it to you may choose to give you a second
-opportunity to receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If
-the second copy is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing
-without further opportunities to fix the problem.
-
-1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
-in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS', WITH NO

-
-1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
-warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of
-damages. If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement
-violates the law of the state applicable to this agreement, the
-agreement shall be interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or
-limitation permitted by the applicable state law. The invalidity or
-unenforceability of any provision of this agreement shall not void the
-remaining provisions.
-
-1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
-trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone

-electronic works, harmless from all liability, costs and expenses,
-including legal fees, that arise directly or indirectly from any of
-the following which you do or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this
-or any Project Gutenberg-tm work, (b) alteration, modification, or
-additions or deletions to any Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any
-Defect you cause.
-
-Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
-electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of
-computers including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It
-exists because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations
-from people in all walks of life.
-
-Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
-assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
-goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
-remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
-Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
-and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future
-generations. To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation and how your efforts and donations can help, see
-Sections 3 and 4 and the Foundation information page at
-www.gutenberg.org
-
-Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation
-
-The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non-profit
-501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
-state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
-Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
-number is 64-6221541. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent permitted by
-U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
-
-The Foundation's business office is located at 809 North 1500 West,
-Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887. Email contact links and up
-to date contact information can be found at the Foundation's website
-and official page at www.gutenberg.org/contact
-
-Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
-Literary Archive Foundation
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without
-widespread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest
-array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
-($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
-status with the IRS.
-
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
-States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular
-state visit www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
-have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
-against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
-approach us with offers to donate.
-
-International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
-any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
-outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
-
-Please check the Project Gutenberg web pages for current donation
-methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
-ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. To
-donate, please visit: www.gutenberg.org/donate
-
-Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
-
-Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project
-Gutenberg-tm concept of a library of electronic works that could be
-freely shared with anyone. For forty years, he produced and
-distributed Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of
-volunteer support.
-
-Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
-editions, all of which are confirmed as not protected by copyright in
-the U.S. unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not
-necessarily keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper
-edition.
-
-Most people start at our website which has the main PG search
-facility: www.gutenberg.org
-
-This website includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
-including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
-Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
-subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

-slowly until every grain is tender.
-Shell and blanch a half-pound of
-almonds, chop fine and then pound
-in a mortar; add, a few drops at a
-time, a half-cupful of cream, forming
-a smooth paste. Mix with this
-a tablespoonful of sugar, a little
-ground chile and a pint of milk and
-put all in with the cooked rice and
-simmer for a half-hour. Season
-with salt, and if too thick add more
-milk.</p>

-<p>Tamales are a mixture of
-meat or fowl made hot with
-chiles and wrapped in corn-husks.
-In preparing the dough
-or <i>nixtamal</i>, unless scalded meal is
-used for a substitute, it is necessary
-to prepare the shelled corn with
-lime-water. The Mexicans grind
-the corn prepared in this way, on
-the metate, and instead of a mortar
-use the <i>molcajete</i> and <i>lejolote</i>.</p>
-
-<p>To prepare the corn, cover it
-with water, add the lime-water and
-boil until the husks slip off easily
-between the fingers, then wash in
-cold water until perfectly white.
-The lime-water is made by adding
-an ounce of common lime to a quart
-of water; stir well and let settle;
-when clear, drain off the water for
-use. One quart of lime-water prepared
-in this way will do for a
-pound of corn. For the wrapping,
-cut off the inside leaves of the corn-husks
-about an inch from the stalk
-end and boil in clear water until
-perfectly clean. Tear a few in narrow
-strips to use for tying the
-ends; dry the rest and rub them
-over with a cloth dipped in hot lard.</p>

-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>

-increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
-freely distributed in machine-readable form accessible by the widest

-
-<div style='display:block; margin:1em 0'>
-The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
-charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United

-considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
-with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
-where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To SEND
-DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any particular state
-visit <a href="https://www.gutenberg.org/donate/">www.gutenberg.org/donate</a>.
