I love how they came together as a community to worship and fellowship with one another. That's what's missing in the US right now. I hope they were able to reach their goal. God bless them! ❤❤❤

Wouldn’t the plastic bags holding the tamales in the metal barrels melt when the fire is lit under them?

@igiveupfine Жыл бұрын

you've heard of the trick where you can put a closed water bottle in a fire and the bottle wont melt, right? because the water inside can't get above the boiling point? the pressure helps keep it below 212F. i'm guessing something about the evaporating water, the steam, helps keep the bag around that temp.

the tamale you mean. that is so the corn paste with the bean paste in the center, the masa, steams and becomes cooked. at home it's just steamed in a pot with a lid.

It’s a community event in a small town. The people cooking are most likely someone’s grandma, grandpa, father etc. Also everything has been cooked to high temperatures. If you are going to be afraid of the next person sneezing next to you, then you are better off staying home forever.

Actually it is, gloves can be troublesome as even the thin one can reduce sensitivity. The steam process is hot enough to kill bacteria.
