Beans, the Magical Fruit “Beans, beans, the magical fruit, the more you eat, the more you toot; the more you toot, the better you feel, so eat your beans at every meal!” In Honduras, cooked black and red beans are most commonly eaten, and are usually served with corn tortillas or rice. If you want a tasty but more processed bean product, try Natura’s Frijoles Rojos Volteados sold in foil bags. If you’re ready to cook your own beans, you can try this basic recipe for Honduran style cooked black beans.

Basic Black Beans
Rinse 2-3 cups of black beans, checking carefully for small rocks or other foreign objects. Place beans in a large pot and add water to cover the beans about two inches. Bring to a boil on the stove for 3-4 minutes, then cover and remove from the heat (there should be plenty of water on top of the beans, as the beans will continue to soak up the water). Allow beans to soak for at least 2-4 hours.

Drain beans and discard the soaking water. Rinse well and refill the pot, covering the beans with about one inch of water. Bring to a boil then reduce heat, and cook on medium low for 1 ? to 2 hours, bringing beans to a boil two more times. Beans should have plenty of water, and if more is needed add boiling water.

In a skillet, sauté the following in a little olive oil until onions are just translucent:

1 finely chopped onion
1 finely chopped green pepper
1 finely chopped jalapeno pepper (optional)
2-4 cloves finely chopped garlic

Just before bringing beans to a boil for the third time, add the sauted mixture along with:

1-2 Tbsp. vinegar, red wine or 1 Tbsp. Worchestershire sauce (optional)
1 can diced/crushed tomatoes (optional)
1 tsp. ground (optional)
1 cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped
salt and pepper to taste

Keep an eye of water level and at the end and remove lid to simmer away water to consistency preferred. Serve with rice, tortillas, encurtido, avocado, cheese, scrambled eggs or sweet plantains. Beans can be frozen in containers in the freezer.
