Most often pinto beans are dried so they can be stored and used at a later time. But during harvest time, you can set aside some of the beans for immediate use.
These are regular pinto beans, but instead of drying them, these were cooked soon after being picked from our aunt’s garden. They’re very similar in taste and texture to the dried version, but knowing how fresh they are makes them taste great. Especially when served with avocado and fresh tomatillo salsa!
Avocado is $2.29 for ONE at Trader Joe’s right now ?
We purchased 3 avocados today for $1.60. They’re a little on the small side. They’re probably cheaper around June, which is when they mature in this area.
This looks good Richard. Love your blog. Good to know things are going extremely well. There is life after retiring…ha.
That’s how I eat my fresh cooked beans, but I’ve never had them straight from the garden.
