Refried beans.. What is that? That is something I been working on from my first trip to baja in 1964. What is with these sublime creamy beans I got with my huevoes rancheros. I came back to the states, back to mexico. I never could nail that bean thing down. Then my brother married a lovey latina. She tatk me how to cook pintos, and well with garlic and more stuff than i use today. Yet something was missing. So, started thinking maybe it is some kind of fat. Then I added the bacon fat I saved on my decadent blt's. Nope, good, but not the real deal. So now I have a ton a fat from cooking my carnitas. Which I dumped in the trash. Could this be the answer to the best friolies? I will report later, kurt

I think I have a good edit on the bean thing. Refried beans.. What is that? That is something I been working on from my first trip to baja in 1964. What is with these sublime creamy beans I got with my huevoes rancheros. I came back to the states, back to mexico. I never could nail that bean thing down. Then my brother married a special latina. Good thing about this melting pot thing. She taught me how to cook pintos, and well, with garlic, and more stuff than i use today. Yet something was missing. So, started thinking maybe it is some kind of fat. Then I added the bacon fat I saved on my decadent blt's. Nope, good, but not the real deal. So now I have a ton a fat from cooking my carnitas. Which I dumped in the trash. Could this be the answer to the best frijoles? I will report later But I just realised I do not like the creamy frijoles. That's why all the folks around me in Oxnard are 50# overweight, even the kids. So, beans are good. Garlic is good. See my early ref. 2 cups of pintos, wash, no soak. clean and pick. lots of garlic. salt and real pepper. 3x water, hard boil slow simmer. add water as needed. kurt
