3 tablespoons corn oil

1 cup chopped red bell pepper

  • Add aromatics to your pot of beans. This could include things like onion, garlic, celery, carrots, or bay leaves. These ingredients will help to flavor the beans and make them more delicious.
  • Season the beans with salt, pepper, and other spices to taste. You can also add a bit of heat with chili powder or cayenne pepper.
  • Cook the beans until they are tender but still hold their shape. This will usually take about 1-2 hours, but it can vary depending on the type of beans you are using.
  • Serve the beans hot or cold, as desired. They can be eaten on their own, or used as an ingredient in other dishes, such as soups, stews, and salads.
