Ingredients
- 1. 1/2 cup of rendered lard
- 2. 3 cans of pinto beans (15 ounces each), thoroughly rinsed and drained
- 3. A sprinkle of salt for seasoning
- 4. 1 cup of fresh water
Step 1
In a large, sturdy pot, heat the lard until it's sizzling. Add the beans and keep stirring as they transform into a velvety concoction. Season with a pinch of salt to enhance the flavors. Lower the heat and pour in some water, then let everything simmer gently. Keep stirring until the beans reach the perfect texture that suits your taste buds.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Invest in airtight containers or mason jars to store your flavorful homemade refried beans. This will help maintain their freshness and prevent any unwanted odors from seeping in.
- 2. If you have leftover beans and want to freeze them for later use, portion them out into individual servings using silicone muffin trays. Once they are frozen, transfer them to a resealable freezer bag for easy storage and on-the-go meals.
