Jalapenos are the most popular chile peppers in the US. This is probably due to the availability and versatility of the chile. Jalapenos have a balanced combination of flavor and heat.
The demand for these have caused breeders to develop a broad range of varieties. You can now get jalapenos with various heat level and sizes. These can be used in salsas, stuffed, or eaten straight with cheeseburgers (my personal favorite).
Ingredients:
1 lb dried pinto beans, washed
1 white onion, chopped
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro, chopped
1 fresh jalapeno pepper, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tbsp lard
water to cover
salt to taste
Instructions:
Place beans in a large pot with onion, cilantro, jalapeno, garlic, and lard. Add enough water to cover with 4 to 5 inches of water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat, and cook for 2 to 3 hours. Depending on the beans, it may take up to 5 hours. Add more water if necessary.
When beans are soft, season to taste with salt.
Serves 12.
