I'm a single man learning to cook. This video was so straight forward. Ma'am, you are an awesome teacher. You made it really simple and easy. Thank you.
Your video means alot to me. My mom always told me that there were weeks when she was a k8d, where her family didn't eat anything but beans and rice. She lived in a family of six, an older sister, older brother, younger sister, and mom and dad. Even though the family pitched in, they still struggled alot and they were pretty poor. They make the most amazing beans, but I never learned how to make them. After watching your video I was able to learn how my family got by. It's such a small thing, and you won't look at this, but I appreciate it so much. Thank you.
Jordan Payne I am so so glad that it means a lot to you and I am able to show people how to make beans because I came from the same background as your mom. I have 10 siblings and I grew up poor and the only thing I ate was beans and tortillas. I realized so many people didn't know how to make beans but they are so simple, good for you, and there are so many things you can do with them.
AlmasRecipes yes it was so much more simple and delicious than you'd originally think. Again, thank you so much, I am so excited to see more of your videos, and cook them! :P
...gracious and beautiful lady.
@@l.o.2005 isn't she tho !... so thankful for Alma's videos
Keep your head up, many of us grew up on beans and rice, or beans, tortillas and potatoes. Delicious!
Dear Alma, I was born and raised in San Jose, California and this is the first most authentic way I have seen to make refried beans. Your last comment about your daughter truly got to my heart as my son is so spoiled with spending $12 a day on Taco Bell, and those delicious bean burrito's your daughter makes with these beans are probably only 25 cents a piece at the most after you include gas stove, oil, cheese, and rent. LOL God bless you and your familia!!!

I LOVE RE-FRIED BEANS!!!
My wife is Texican and she makes these beans about once a week. She fries them in bacon grease for extra flavor and lessens the salt needed. She also chops up the onion half that was not used in the boiling process, and uses it in the frying process. The house smells so good while they are cooking (slow boil, her total time is about 4 hrs), that I keep stealing little bowls throughout the cooking process. Add some of her home-made tortillas and who needs anything else? (Maybe a cold beer!)
Thank you for this. :D
Rice lettuce cheese and most definitely salsas. I love food way too much gonna have to work out today!!
Yes sir .
I work evenings and nights so Getting laid off because of Covid and having to learn how to cook for two boys and my wife was difficult. People like this are amazing. This is the recipe I use every time I cook. I hope this lady knows how much I appreciate her.
Great Mexican food heritage. May all people who cook like this & who eat like this be happy & healthy.
Amalgamaite people of all races are fat in America. With a lot of the sugary snacks it makes sense.
thank you for sharing only you made me so hungry.
My mom made the best beans, God rest her soul, she has since passed on! She would rinse the beans, and let them soak over night ( to get white in color). For r,refried beans (we would have for breakfast), she would fry bacon, and used the bacon grease in the refried beans. OMG! The beans were so good!
This is how I make them too.
Anything you cook with bacon would taste "the best", of course.
What most people don't understand is beans have a smooth, mild flavour, which of course wil be completely overpowered by the strong, greasy flavor of the bacon.
Also, you don't need to soak them overnight for "whiteness".
If you cook them right, dry, without overnight soaking, you still will be able to get them "white"
Correct way to cook beans ! When soaked overnight ,you get rid of the toxins that cause gases !
Hachikō o
@@sandrawaller4344 That's exactly the reason to soak them. It doesn't change the texture or taste, it changes how you smell the next day. ;-)
But they aren't toxins, either. They are enzymes many people don't breakdown in the gut fully.
Finally, someone who can give me correct ratios to cooking beans. Thank you oh so much !
Im a husband learning to cook and just want to say thank you!
Gay 😂
Warrior Spirit I wish my husband would learn to cook so I can get a day off and actually relax after work.. Good for you Sir.
Warrior Spirit Yeah!
@@itsok865 Cooking isn't gay lmao you're fucking useless if you can't cook. Basic ass skills. Let the man learn.
@@Mrfanofsonic im a hell if a cook i said nothing about cooking
I believe that if I die with Mexican food in my mouth I'll go straight to Heaven.
when you have Mexican food in your mouth, you're in heaven.
Rob G 😂🤣👍
Diane Greene 😂🤣👍
I believe that I will crap my brains out!
@@robg9236 True. But to be able to stay there - !
You just saved my life I’m now retired in Thailand and you have no idea how much I miss Mexican food. This is so easy to do next time I go to the big city I’m finding me a 20 pound bag of beans and some tortillas don’t forget the cheese and all live happily ever after
you should learn how it make tortillas
I like her no frills presentation. She doesn't overcomplicate things.
This is an excellent tutorial! LOL! I noticed that while the chef was waiting for the beans to cook for three hours she re-did her nails!
You can soak it overnight and cooks on half the time.
Very good recipe and instruction, thank you. I lived in Albuquerque, New Mexico some time ago. I heard a story from a friend of mine about some fancy nutritionist coming to New Mexico about 1920 or so, before New Mexico became a state. He supposed he would see lots of evidence of malnutrition. What he saw was a thriving community who ate beans and rice regularly; this is a perfect protein. They also ate a lot of vegetables in season and some meat, chicken and fish, but in moderation because it was hard to come by. I still love making a really good rice and beans recipe, wonderful for breakfast, lunch or dinner!
When I lived in Southern California.. My neighbor was a Mexican young woman.. She taught me how to make this type of beans.. And I had forgotten.. I am so glad I found your video... I will make them like this from now on.. Instead of buying a can which really is the nastiest tasting... Yum... I also subscribed to your channel...
Thats great to hear! Thanks for subscribing :D!
very good video just what I needed to know to make good restaurant style refried beans... Now all we need is homemade flour tortillas
If I buy a can do I have to do the first part?
Especially older adults, excellent fiber protein. Never be constipated.
She actually didn't do it right she forgot to add the garlic and as far as the beans are concerned before you soak them my mom would pick them one by one to see which one was good and which was not good and then she would soak it overnight add garlic cloves and the onion
I'm here cause my girlfriend left me and now I have to cook my own beans ;(
I can relate! 😂😂🤣
I'm here because my girlfriend has previously burned 2 pots of beans and going on number 3. I eat out alot
I see why she left you
Marie Khubashvili 😂😂😂
Fumando Mota lol
Thank you! I've been very frustrated trying to get my beans to soften. Been cooking them for 1 1/2 hours and was suspecting that they needed a lot more time. Betting that the 2 1/2 hours is the answer I was looking for.
On medium-low heat beloved.
@@nurhayat81 Thank you :)
You need to cook these beans for about 3 hrs. On low for best results.....they will come out delicious. I made these yesterday, delicious
Tracey from Austin Texas
I know this vid is 4 years old but thank you I’m trying right now , and your rice too
SuperAjej I was very poor as a child and survived on beans. This is how my mom made the retried beans. As a child I would take my corn tortilla and cut it into sm pieces and had my bean soup. I crave it now and then. Thanks
Made it today, best beans I’ve ever had. Instead of the onion at first I did cloves of garlic. Everything else I did the same. Yum!
So interesting to see how others prepare their beans. Thank you for taking the time to post this. Very insightful
OMyGosh YUM ! I made these Beans last night for dinner ! 😋😍😍😍👍👍👍But I cooked the beans in my Instant Pot 35mins ur 1/2lb Dry pintos & 3-1/2cups water on Manual 35mins w- Quick Release. I used the 1/2 white onion (It was all I had) & I added 2 cloves garlic tossed the onion out. & instead of corn oil I used bacon grease & infused the other 1/2 of the onion then tossed the onion out & added the beans & their broth & smashed & cooked down ..... They Were Sooooo YUMMY Thank u soooo Much for ur recipe. I look for recipes I can cook in my IPot ( Instant pot ) ( electric Pressure cooker ). So ur beans I was able to cook in 1 Hour Total & only had to stand over the stove for 15mins IF That 😊👍thank u again this is nice my Favirite Refried Beans. We were laying $6.50 for 1 quart but the Resturant closed. So now I can make them for about $1- 👍👍👍😃
Your video actually took me to a place back in time as a youngin 🙂I mean back when my mom walked in dining room ,popped a bag of beans on the table and had me help clean the beans ... Great times !!! Good job thank you much ... josh SATX
Same, fond memories. We'd help cause we knew we would be eating our efforts.
They look delicious! Thank you.
Those look delicious Alma, I will give your recipe a try. Thank you for sharing!
Excellent! This was just the style of refried beans that I was looking for. Thanks Alma.
You are such a kind person.
Gracias
Delicious, Thank You, Many Blessings
Thanks for the video. I always loved something about cooking but never did any as a child. Now im older and i want to learn from my mom on how to make some of my favorite dishes growing up but sadly our schedules never line up (she works in the mornings and i work afternoons/evenings) so videos like this really help hold me over until me and my mom both have time to meet in the kitchen. Many thanks from michigan!
Thank you for the video, first try and they are delicious!!
Thank you, I appreciate your ways very much!
Made these yesterday! Will be my goto now! Raised on beans, but mine were not as good. It is the slow cooking that makes them great!!! Thank you! And they make awesome burritos!
Omg! Copied the exact recipe and they came out soooo good! Thanks 😊
I love it. I come for a mexican family but never learned to cook beans. This video is the best. Keep putting videos up please. Thank you.
When my wife (Texican) and I married (almost 40 yrs ago), I so loved her cooking that beans and tortillas quickly became one of my favorite meals. So easy, too!
I'm Mexican too and never learned to make beans and salsa. Lol what is up with that
I'm from Germany and love Mexican food, not Tex Mex but Authentic Mexican food when we visited Mexico a few years ago!!
@@mikebauer464 That's because you're an idiot.
@@timjustice9080 Tex-Mex is good snack food, but not a proper meal.
Thank you for the easy instructions I’m going to try it now
Thank you! Looks great. I will give it a go.
Yummy love beans and your accent beautiful! Mexican's cooking it the best!
Muchas gracias! :)
Great and thank you for sharing your recipe. Delicious.
This has been my go to recipe for a few years, so thank you so very much. They always turn out perfect.
3rd time making your wonder beans. thank you..
I like them less runny (menos aguados) so I just use a slotted spoon when I fry them and add just about half a cup of the bean juice.
This Is The Best Refried Bean Recipe Ever! I Tried It & It Turned Out Great!! Thank You!!!
Thank you. Always wondered how to make those.
Looks so yummie! Thanks :)
SuperJess TV what's your channel about
H v cat c
Most beautiful bean cooking girl ever!
Thank you for making this video. I learned alot.
Excellent video! Thank you.
I just put two cups in my pressure cooker, electric put some garlic and salt. One and a half hours later. I have beans.
Love these beans as a side with rice and 2 chicken tacos , mm mm
Wonderful and easy recipe. Thank you so much for sharing your cooking talent.
It worked great! Thank you!
WOW! I just made it and it's super Delish! my son is very picky and doesn't like much mexican food but he tried it cause I made it and he asked for more!!!!! Thank you so much!! Please most more videos and more recipes!
+Marina Polanco Thank you so much for watching and liking! I am so glad my recipe worked great for you and your son. I will definitely try to post more.
i luv beans can i come live wit u?(":
I ALWAYS ADD WHOLE GARLIC ALSO...
me too
and bacon grease to cook them in
Craig Rowe 🤙 me too
I add diced onions and garlic towards the end of cooking time. My beloved wife who passed away would fry bacon strips separately, then dice the bacon strips and add them towards the end of cooking time. BTW, It only takes less than 2hrs. from start to finish. She told me to never add raw bacon strips to the beans while cooking. Yum, yum.
Yes,that's what I have done along with onion,and kosher salt,my wife doesn't use the garlic I get good results!
Thank You! I can’t wait to make it. I’ve been cooking beans for years, but never seem to get them just right, but these really look good. Thank You Thank You.
Looks great!!! Thank you!
Easy instructions, thanks. I don't use onion at all. I let them boil usually for more than 4 hours and a VERY SLOW FIRE. Definitively use more water. I use vegetable oil for frying, NOT LARD, as many people argue. I hate the taste of using lard. If they are well fried they taste delicious with oil.
Lard is traditional, pork fat rules.
But see your point. That's the beauty of personal Taste.
@@joekurtz8303
Lard (mantica) is not healthy and is a poor choice when cooking.
Veva Chp my mom used use bacon grease to fry her beans ....yum yum good !
@@Jeanette888
How tall are you and how much do you weigh? Yeah, kinda thought so.
john a. lmao
CHEESE!!on everything!! i love how she didnt play around, she straight took a handful and set it on the beans no looking to see if it was too much, !! IM HUNGRY NOW!
Bullnutz Handbag not cheese. “Chiz.” 🤣
Looks delicious!!! Muchas Gracias
Thank you so much Alma.
My 3 year old nephew hated beans until i told him"beans make you fart"
ron, my grandma would soak them overnight in water with a tablespoon of backing soda, it takes out most of the gas !
@@bigdogbob845 that's no fun
@@bigdogbob845 ... that is right and it works... once they've boiled, I trough the first water, refill and then add condiments
Old.........Wait, who I am I calling old ? I am ONLY 70 ! Sometimes it is beneficial to look back at the way our grandparents survived the lean times, like the Great Depression. Another One Coming ! ? ? I have worked my very productive 800 sf vegetable garden for over 20 years, and do canning, drying, freezing and preserving a good deal of my crops, Nothing Better than Home Grown. Give the neighbors a lot too.
carin, we are in So. Cal, how about you ?
I just have to say, Thank you so much for showing me an easier way of making beans. I also made you Mexican rice too. You are amazing. Got a new subscriber here. I made a mukbang video of the beans and rice. lol

Thank you for posting your video! We love Mexican food and now I can make these at home!! 💕😎🤗
I'm here after watching, "They Call Me, Trinity." Gotta have some beans.
I was taught to pick the rocks out of the beans before rinsing them.
Especially the ugly looking ones lol
you had to be taught that, WOW
Leaving rocks in our beans is good for our dentist
I chomped on a stone hiding in black eyed peas.
My mom taught me that too. Never found one
Looks great. Thanks for sharing
Soooo simple!!! Totally not complicated like I was thinking. Thank you so much!
For some reason I'm hungry right now for some beans. I wasn't when I started watching this video. Good job kiddo.
I add bacon, garlic, jalapenos in my beans 💯
I learned how to make Mexican style beans OMG! Thank you for sharing.
Hands down the best Recipe!! Thanks so much! Really !
I like mine thicker so just need to cook longer.
Either that or let the beans cool down completely once fully cooked and then bring to a boil again
you have a peaceful countenance(":
Thanks, Alma, for this recipe and for all the recipes you have shared.
This is a really good video.
Thank you.
This is the most accurate video on mexican style beans
TheTrueMac ill make a video of how to do it... she missed something.

Antonio Martinez I HAD FORGOTTEN I WROTE THIS. ILL MAKE ONE THIS WEEKEND. REMIND ME PLEASE.

Now that's an attractive video! Pretty woman. Pretty accent. And dang I wish I had a pile of those beans right now!
Nick Little I second everything you said
Nick Little ha ha ha you’re so funny
We need to build a Wall!

Love this!! Thank you!!!!!
I never like resuraunt beans my home cooked ones are the best to me
whats your recipe pls
I agree with others - this is probably the most authentic recipe out there. (It tastes almost like the great refried beans at La Hacienda.) Yes you could have added cilantro, spices, lard etc but why ?
Why not? I love to experiment with spices and have so many to use up. (Penzey's addict) LOL
smb12321 :)
You're a good teacher. Thank you.
Thank you. Beans look delicious.
She forgot the garlic cloves
Yuk !!
@@veravaladez1525 you're ignorant that's what gives it the flavor
Namicatt you add @ the beginning along with the onion
"I like to add some beans"
(dumps the whole bag)
Itz_Brina_Bitchez 2 shots of vodka
Some cheese*
Latinas don’t mess around. Looks so delish
Thanks , this looks so good. I think I'll try this
I made this recipe yesterday.....I'm convinced this is the best.......thank you Tracey
Shes amazingly gorgeous. I want to marry her !
she seems sad looking at the mashed beans
Marc Perez yeah. She ruined a lot of beans lives that day
Marc Perez that's because her mashed beans looked sad. That is not how you fry beans. Believe me.
diane pulido make your own video...
Great recipe! The beans came out great....muchas gracias!
I am doing this right now as I’m watching this video! Thank you !!
Just use a crockpot it will save you lot of time for other things to do! You're welcome. 😉
