My coming out day message to y'all:

I'm here, I'm queer, and I don't have a new comic to post just yet.

Door-to-door queerness salesman: Floating top hat and gloves holding out a rainbow.

Tomatillo sauce: Sauté 1/2 cup diced onions and 3 cloves minced garlic in olive oil. Add a half pound of chopped tomatillos, 2 cups chicken broth (or vegetarian alternative), 2 cups water, 2 tblsp rice vinegar, 1 tsp freshly-ground cumin, cilantro and a few slices of jalapeño to taste. Reduce. Blend if you've got a blender.

Tamale Filling: Roast corn and pasilla chile (or some other, milder chile depending on your heat tolerance) in the oven. Chop chiles.

Tamales: Soak corn husks in hot water until soft (20-30 minutes). Rinse. Spread out. Spread masa dough (masa harina, pinch of salt, enough water for a clay-like consistency) over the corn husk. Add a line of filling in the center. Roll, fold, squash down a bit. Steam for 1 hour.

Recommended cocktail to accompany dinner: Chilled horchata, ideally the dairy-free variety, with a generous dash of cinnamon schnapps.
