Okay no Steamer will this work?
In theory I would think it would work, I have a glass pan, water at the bottom Metal rack will cover tightlly with tin foil. and bake and check. Doing the tamales. Will this steam well? I was thinking the old 350 degrees, any one have better suggestions?

Now I am , using a plate, in a pot, I dont want the water to touch, why I was coming up with a better solution. Hoping for one.
Answers:
This is what I do. Grab a large pot, place forks and spoons (metal) on the bottom, and then place a big towel on top of them in the pot. On top of the towel, line again with metal spoons covering towel, and in the middle place a small bowl upside down. pour water so it barely touching the utensills. Put your tamales facing up around the bowl, and turn the stove on, keep checking to tamales, and pour more water as needed. Cover pot, check periodically. Works like a charm!
