  • Every Tejano owes it to themselves to learn how to prepare their abuela's beans. Join Vianney as she teaches us the in’s and out of the simple dish by first making delicious frijoles de olla then turning those into the refried beans many of us know and love!
    INGREDIENTS:
    Frijoles
    1-pound pinto beans
    2 bay leaves
    4 cloves of garlic
    1/2 onion
    8 cups of water
    1 tablespoon kosher salt
    Crema or Queso Fresco for garnishing (Optional)
    To Make Refried Beans
    4 slices bacon
    2 cups cooked Frijoles, with 1 cup bean liquid
    salt to taste
    DIRECTIONS:
    1) Clean bean. Remove any bits or broken beans and place in bowl. Rinse beans under cold water until water runs clear and drains. Place in a large heavy stockpot, add water. Add onion, bay leaves, garlic and bring to a boil.
    2) When the beans have reached the boil stage, reduce heat, cover, and simmer for about 1 1/2 hours. If needed add more water to your pot, you always want at least 2 inches of water covering your beans.
    3) At the end of 1 1/2 hours, check the texture of your beans. They should be soft, not mushy or falling apart. Remove the onion and add salt to taste. Serve in large bowls and garnish with cilantro, tomatoes, crema, or a sprinkle of queso fresco.
    For Refried Beans:
    1) Heat bacon over medium high heat. Once bacon is fully cooked, remove from pan leaving bacon drippings in pan - add beans and liquid.
    2) Mash beans, with potato masher until beans reach desired texture. Season with salt and pepper.

    Can't wait to try this! I know my grandma would make frijoles for us all the time. I never tried and I def miss her. She came from Mexico, grew up in Texas. My fiance said his grandmas refried beans were the best he's ever had so I'm determined to start making them homemade. This is the perfect place to start. Thank you so much!

    Always like to see how someone else does a recipe before revisiting an old favorite. For refrieds, I love using the same manteca I use and save from making carnitas. Love that familiar porky flavor!

    i married the only mexican in history who hated beans. i love beans. it didn't work out
    in texas we have "Casserole" brand dry pinto beans, and they have been pre-cleaned. and almost never have hard dirt clods or rocks.
    thanks for the recipe! 😃

    I was so interested to see that you don’t soak your beans overnight. Wouldn’t they cook faster? Love your kitchen and that beautiful top you are wearing💕

    Everyone is different. My people are from Louisiana and we season our beans in the water over night so the beans soak up all the flavor. Its the total opposite in Creole cooking. If you've presoaked your beans overnight they won't take extra time to cook.

    >You can find them in the Latin foods section of your grocery store
    How far north of the Red River do you have to travel before pinto beans are no longer next to or across from the bags of rice?

    I've always rated restaurants on refried beans. If they can't get those right, then the rest probably ain't right either lol

    Hello from Canada ! Loved this recipe. so much I made two batches in one week. is there a difference between Tex - Mex cooking and regular Mexican cooking ? Thank you for helping me learn about and enjoy a whole new cuisine.

      Mexican is regional. Tex-Mex is very similar to what you get in Northeastern Mexico, but it gets less similar as you move more South and inland. That being said, it's part of the stream of Mexican Americans are generally most familiar with (that being the Mexican food of people on the US-Mexican border)

    If you're not using lard and instead using bacon you're making bacon beans not refried.

    • @chelleroberson3222
      @chelleroberson3222 9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      We use bacon grease in Texas hence texmex cooking

    It's Mexican, or it's not!

  • @sarentopi1502
    @sarentopi1502 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Do not add nitrites from cured bacon to your beans. Use nitrite-free pork fat at least. You could render the fat from pork belly.

    • @ramencurry6672
      @ramencurry6672 11 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Some markets sell pork fat and you can make lard from that

  • @Michael_Howard59

    what do you do with the bacon? why not just chop it up and add it in?
