Absolutely! Tamales are one item in Tex-Mex cooking that are exceptionally time-intensive to create, but they do freeze very well. Consequently, in traditional Mexican cooking, tamales are prepared by the hundreds near the Christmas holiday. In Texas, we maintain this tradition, but with one little twist: here, we like tamales so much that we eat them all year round. Start your own tradition with a big plate of tamales on your holiday table and have a Merry Christmas!
