3 weeks agoFrijoles Peruanos (Peruvian Refried Beans)
Peruvian mayocoba (frijoles peruanos/canarios) produce exceptionally creamy, smoky refried beans finished in bacon fat and topped with crispy bacon.
My first experience with the prized white beans was at the Latin Grill Masters festival at Conrad Punta de Mita, where they quickly became my best bite of the year. We would be here all day if I walked you through the full transcendent experience my taste buds underwent as I tasted them, but I will stay on track. This recipe is my love letter to the taupe-hued smear of the creamiest, smokiest refried beans I've ever had.
