You are very good at explaining things and your recipes are very tasty. Keep up the great content! I can’t thank you enough because of you I am learning how to cook!! 😄👍👌

Very nice! Bean basics. So good, nutritious and economical, not to mention home made. Enjoyed the video very much, thanks! Making the frijoles refritos isn't so difficult, at all. No reason for anyone not to try it it seems. 😃

What brand do u like ?

[@elvee_]

i’m sorry i don’t use a specific brand. i just buy the ones that my grocery store packs. but i’m sure all brands would work the same.

the process is still the same for cooking pinto or black beans too though. pinto might take like 30 extra minutes and black might take an extra hour.
