When the memory of a dish haunts you and you can’t find anyone to make it for you. When the memorabilia of grandmother, aunt or uncle who made it for you is so blissful and you feel like you can reach out and touch them through the food they created with so much love and affection, but you haven’t’ got a clue as to how to make it. I come from Louisiana where food is pretty much the top of the priority list in day to day living. There are so many memories in my head that evolve around food and to try to find them, to make them happen the way I remembered them, often calls for a little reaching, begging, prodding and finally, I simply must channel the brilliance of my relatives cooking genius to discover just how they made that special food. In this issue I’m channeling my grandmother, who was Hispanic and made the most wonderful tamale pies. When I was pregnant for my son, I thought if I asked nicely, my mother would make me one, she not only denied my request, but she would not even try to give me the recipe. Once I got home I asked the only one I knew to help me
with the recipe and there in my little kitchen, I found the help I needed from my grandmother who helped me find the tamale pie I was so yearning for. I believe we all have guardian angels or what some would call spirit guides. I believe my Abuelita is mine. There are moments in my life when I can feel her, hear her and on many occasions, she has walked me through many difficulties. Here is the recipe that was whispered to me in that kitchen. The end result, not bad, nope, not bad at all.
