Pinto beans are the core of all epic Mexican cuisine.
Here’s how to make amazing pinto beans.
Please read the recipe first.
Always get organic ingredients when possible!
Buy some raw pinto beans
Sort them (make sure there are no rocks!)
Rinse them
You can soak them in the fridge overnight
Or just put them in a pot with 3x filtered water (or more. Pinto beans take water don’t be afraid to use too
much)
Add Salt-Start with 1 Tbsp. really good salt
Add Garlic cloves, start with 4
Optional-throw a jalapeno or poblano chili in there, uncut*
Cook/Boil them until they taste and look done.
Set a time for 30 minutes, then check them. During cooking check the water level, and make sure the beans
are well covered. Stir. Add more water if needed.
They are done when they are done (soft and almost falling apart).
*Remove the jalapeno whole if you only want the flavor, not the heat.
Salt to taste.
I store everything in a container.

I use a potato masher to “refry” them with no oil. (Use some of that bean water you saved)
