    @asmodiusjones9563 Před 2 měsíci +594

    Great recipe, a few points from someone who grew up catering Mexican food -
    1) when reheating, put between two plates to form a seal. This way you don’t need to waste a sheet of parchment paper every time you eat this.
    2) don’t fry them before you freeze them, fry them before you eat them. Microwave to heat throughout, then fry to get that crisp. If you fry beforehand, it will be soggy after freezing.
    3) let them cool on a cookie rack.
    4) my favorite way to eat this is with fried eggs and salsa (this is easy if you are already frying it when you eat it). For an extra $0.75 you can really turn it into a satisfying meal (eggs have a lot of protein, salsa has a lot of flavor with minimal calories). Huevos rancheros mi amigo.
    5) Go nuts on the scale. My family makes literally hundreds of these at once, filling 10-20 gallon freezer bags. They last months when frozen (I assume, we eat them before it’s ever been an issue). This is our main calorie source.
    6) I don’t want to hurt anyone’s feelings… but I died inside when he did not pour off the water from the beans. We pour it off and replace it with new hot water, which almost completely removes the digestion issues that cause gas. (Of course, the authentic thing to do is replace it with lard…). Or, if you’re concerned about losing nutrition, at least soak them overnight (in the fridge) and pour that water off before boiling.
    But I absolutely concur that canned refried beans are inedible. I cannot believe people eat that; it tastes like how dog food smells.

      @asmodiusjones9563 Před 2 měsíci +6

      @@ntolman it isn’t as quick as just microwaving them, but if you are frying eggs already there is no additional time. Just be sure to microwave first to heat the middle, and then fry.
      Having them pre-fried doesn’t do much for them, because freezing them and thawing them out turns the fried part soggy. Also, if you are making 200 of them, it takes to long to fry them beforehand. My recommendation is to not fry them before freezing, and then decide if you want to fry them or not when you reheat them.

      Don’t forget the price of rent or a mortgage to be able to own a stove and the cost of air conditioning and heating to make the kitchen bearable to work in. You’ve also got the cost of cleaning the kitchen and the dishes when you’re done cooking. The price of utensils and a blender and glassware to hold the burritos. The fridge to keep the burritos from rotting.

      Taco Bell really isn't as bad for you as you might think. It's far less bad for you than most fast food, and generally cheaper. A bean and cheese burrito from there has 2/3 the calories, lower carbs, several grams less fat, and same amount of fiber. It is quite a bit lower on protein and much higher in sodium, but really not bad other than the sodium.

    here's a tip for ya: do not add salt in the water before cooking beans. Add salt only after the beans have been cooked. This will cut down the cooking time from 3 hours to like an hour tops. And this goes for all legumes, cooking them in salty water DRASTICALLY increases the time they have to be cooked for until soft.

      ​@joshua.market
      According to my AI cooking assistant, no:
      The notion that adding salt to the water when boiling beans or legumes increases their cooking time is more myth than fact. In reality, the impact of salt on the cooking process is a bit more nuanced.
      Adding salt to the soaking water (before cooking) can help the beans cook more evenly by promoting a softer texture. The salt ions can replace some of the magnesium and calcium ions in the bean skins, which makes the skins more permeable and less tough. This process, known as brining, can result in beans that are more evenly cooked and less likely to burst open during cooking.

    • @micah1754
      @micah1754 Před 3 měsíci

      Not sure on the cooking times, but salting beans before cooking leads to a better product. It’s not always about what is faster.
      -According to Cook's Illustrated, it all has to do with the calcium and magnesium ions in bean skins. As the beans soak and cook, sodium ions in salted water will gradually replace some of those calcium and magnesium ions, which in turn allows for greater water penetration into bean cells. This is particularly true of the tough outer skins of beans.
      When unsalted beans cook, their interiors can end up swelling faster than their skins can keep up with, resulting in skins that rupture instead of enlarging along with the rest of the bean. Salted beans will grow proportionally, resulting in fully tender, creamy, intact beans that are well seasoned throughout.

    You can add eggs or egg white to these and it works pretty well, same with chicken, ground turkey, beef ect. All you need to do to keep that meat, egg or whatever moist and not dried out as it cooks and mix it into the beans after that. When you reheat the beans will keep the meat or eggs from drying out. Even scrambled eggs will remain mostly moist if a bit rubbery from the microwave.

    From what I understand, doing an overnight soak and drain before cooking will do a lot to remove anti nutrients and improve digestibility with beans.
    Another tip would be to use or mix in black soy beans to lower the net carbs. This will raise the price though. But if you're adding meat and green chilies, you don't notice the difference much at all.
    I have a mild allergy to legumes, so I try to avoid them altogether.

    Your refried beans look very good. Minor quibble, but there is no need to horizontally slice an onion when dicing it. The vertical cuts from root to stem julienne the onion, so a perpendicular cut dices them. Turning the knife 90 degrees over and cutting inward doesn't make your dice smaller, it just makes it inconsistent, and would be a "dangerous" cut for somebody who is new / not confident with a knife.
