FRIJOLES III
I searched all the recipes, and none are close to real Mexican beans. The canned type are only a pale imitation of the real beans simmering all day on the stove. Easy and inexpensive, too. Do not soak and drain beans overnight as per American or European bean recipes. Cook the beans in their own liquid. You can use black beans and different chile peppers in this recipe.

BLACK BEANS AND RICE(ARROZ CON FRIJOLES NEGROS)
I know what you're thinking, black beans and rice, kind of plain, right? But not this recipe--from Goya. My husband thought, "Ok, beans and rice, I already love those, what can be so different about this recipe?" He had to eat his words, along with the beans and rice, lol. With the addition of a few simple things, wow, these are delicious! And so simple, a really quick side dish.

Steps:
- 1. Sort and clean beans, then rinse twice in cool water. In a heavy cooking pot, add water to cover the beans completely and soak overnight in the refrigerator. NOTE: what ever I have put in the above recipe that states Set Aside for Later does not go into the pot now. (Example recipe calls for 3/4 cup olive oil, half goes in now; the other 1/4 cup gets set aside for later). Next morning do not throw soaking water away put on the stove, to the pot add one whole green pepper core and seeds removed, cut pepper in half; add the two halves like this to the pot. Add half cup olive oil, three cloves garlic smashed, 2 tbls vinegar, 1/2 tsp oregano, cumin, salt, bay leaf, 1 tsp of sugar, and 2 tabelspoons red wine. Cover and cook on medium low flame for about 2 1/2 hours.
- 2. While beans are cooking make this sofrito, This sofrito should be added to the beans, after two and a half hour of cooking has past. In a large skillet heat remaing 1/4 cup olive oil; add the other remaining diced green pepper,the diced onion, the three cloves of remaining smashed garlic, plus the teaspoon of garlic powder; plus the 1/2 tablespoon of sugar, the black pepper, and remaining 1/2 tsp of oregano; and saute until onion and peppers are limp. Next add about 20 olives whole from the jar do not mince or cut and add the fire roasted pimento strips. salt to taste saute for another minute and set aside. After 2 1/2 hours have passed add your sofrito mixture to the simmering beans; give a good stir. Cover and cook for another hour. After your hour has passed uncover the pot and with a potato masher, Mash down two or three times only. (No more then three times). Next take a large spoon and give another good stir making sure to mix everything very good. If the liquid level in the bean pot has dropped down or has started to absorb add another one cup of water. Stir well again taste to see if they have enough seasoning (salt) Cover again and cook for another hour always on a low simmer. Total time now should be 4 1/2 hours. Uncover pot; Beans should be sort of thick not watery, They will not be real thick either, if still a little watery uncover the pot and cook for another half hour uncoverd. Stir often to be sure your beans do not stick to the bottom of the pot. Taste to see once again if seasoning is right salt and pepper and serve on top of fluffy white rice. I have a recipe for white rice posted. You can also eat the beans in a bowl with crusty cuban bread, however, they are almost always eaten on top of white rice or on the side. traditionaly almost always a fresh ham roast is served with the rice and beans or at Christmas a whole pig is roasted and served with these beans and rice. Enjoy
- 3. I will post a picture this weekend of the finished beans.
CUBAN BLACK BEANS (FRIJOLES NEGROS)
This is my favorite recipe, shown to me by my mother, and shown to her by her mother and so on. It is amazing! Make sure to follow instructions perfectly so the beans do not come out salty. The secret is the teaspoon of sugar. Serve with white rice.

This is a tasty, zesty side dish that can easily become a main meal. Serve soupy with warm flour tortillas or crusty bread, crumble corn bread on top, or scoop up with tortilla chips. Like mac and cheese, it's a great comfort food. It is easy to make because it doesn't require constant attention and is good for everything from a family meal to a football party. It can easily be doubled. Check flavor before serving and alter seasonings to taste if necessary. Top with more onion and cilantro as desired. If there are any leftovers, they hold up well and taste great the next day.
