I saw a video on line about how they make the tamales. They use
cornmeal instead of masa harina, and the tamale is formed by a
machine. I noticed they added melted lard rather than solid lard. I
guess I am wondering if there is any problem forming the tamale by
hand. I have made "regular tamales", and was wondering if anyone might
have any insights in making this Solly's style.

thanks
