1. In a large pot, place the cornhusks and cover with hot water to soften them. Leave there for at least 30 minutes. Drain and reserve.
2. Meanwhile, in a large bowl, mix the dry ingredients (corn masa-harina, baking powder and salt) , and stir in the vegetable oil. Pour the warm chicken broth and mix with a spatula until you form the dough into a creamy texture, similar to soft ice cream. If the dough doesn’t look as creamy as in the picture, add a little more broth, a tablespoon at the time.
3. Spread about 3 tablespoons of the dough on the already soft corn husk using a spoon or spatula. Top with 2 tablespoons of the filling. Fold one left side of the husk to the center and then the right side to the center. Finally, fold the end toward the center of the tamal. Place the tamal on a tray while you finish assembling the rest.
4. Now, get your steamer ready adding a couple of hot cups of water and line the steamer rack with corn husks. If you don’t have a steamer, place loose pieces of aluminum foil at the bottom of the pot to function as a steamer rack.

1. Cover 40-45 corn husks with hot water, place a heavy pan on top to make sure all the husks stay covered. Let them soak for 45 minutes. If you are making your filling in advance, soak the corn husks the day you are making the tamales.
2. Place pork, bay leaves, pepper and 2 teaspoons salt in a pressure cooker, cover the meat with water and cook according to your pressure cooker's instruction manual (Note: Every pressure cooker is different, in mine it took 40 minutes). You can also use a slow cooker or a pot, but this will take longer. Whichever method you choose, in the end, you will need to have very tender pork meat and at least 3 cups of broth. When the meat is done, take it out of the broth and let it rest for a few minutes. Reserve the broth for later.
3. Mix tamal flour, salt and baking powder. Pour broth and mix until well integrated. Place the vegetable shortening in a big bowl and beat until creamy and fluffy. Add the tamal mixture and with you hands mix all ingredients for 5-7 minutes. The masa will be a little coarse, wet and spreadable.
