Hi Erica, Love all your recipes. I have a question how do you cook thefrijoles on a pressure cooker?

R E P L Y

Hi Margaret,

Place all the ingredients in the pressure Cooker,except the plantains and cookat high pressure for 25 minutes. Remove from heat and let rest for 5 minutes. Release thesteam, following the manufacturers directions. Add the plantains, simmer them with the lidoff until tender.

R E P L Y

Hi Erica, I am from Medellin and been in the US for some time. My familyloves this dish but I cannot find the beans like the ones from home. Mostpinto beans are too small and dont have the same flavor. Any suggestions?

Also, would love to find chicharron to cook but cant find it either. Thanks in advance!

R E P L Y

Sandra- I buy frijoles cargamanto or pinto beans and tocino in a Latinsupermarket. You can find tocino in Asian markets too.

R E P L Y

I made these beans and they were wonderful! They taste likehome(Colombia). Great beans. Thank you!

R E P L Y

These beans are like my moms. I was missing all these dishes. Colombianfood is the best. They were perfect and I am going to make them again!

R E P L Y

Hi! Ive been trying to find a good recipe for white rice and beans but Imnot sure which beans to get. Do I need to buy dry beans or canned? andwhich is better if it doesnt matter?

R E P L Y

Jenn- I prefer dried beans!!!

R E P L Y

Hi Erica!

I attempted to make the beans but they didnt turn out. They were almost likea stew and not watery like they were supposed to be. Are you supposed to cut the pork hocksand eat them as part of the dish? If not, at what point do you disgard them from the dish? Ifound that they made a foam in the liquidare you supposed to scoop that out? Do you drainthe liquid from the beans before adding the guiso? I would like to try the recipe again becauseit smells good but didnt look very appetizing like your picture!

R E P L Y

What other meats can I substitute the hocks for?thank u!ncant wait to makethese for my Colombian hottie!n

R E P L Y

Excellent recipe. As good as the real stuff from las abuelas!!

I made a few modifications:

1. I replaced meat with a previously browned (on skillet a few min each side) sweet italiansausage (nothing else in my fridge).

2. Didnt soak them overnight (I didnt have time for it)

3. Blended the guiso ingredients (I am admit it, got lazy on this one) and cooked as directed.Flavor is the same, consistency a little different.

4. I used slow cooker and without pre-soaking. I added 4 cups of water to a pound of washedbeans (no pinto beans, only had small red beans), added the guiso once done, and put it downfor 7 hours on high.

5. Skipped the carrot and plaintain (I didnt have any).

Even with mods above for reasons above :), it turn out great!!! Please, do keep putting in slowcooker options.

Planning on getting dried beans but I already have cans of beans to use upthat are unseasoned and have no additives other than some sea salt as apreservative. What are your suggestions on altering for that as far as amount

used and ammount of spices, changes in cooking time, etc? Thank you!

R E P L Y

Cargamantos are called cranberry beans and you can find them at anygourtmet store like William sonoma or any other supermarket.

R E P L Y

great dishes my wife is from Cali Colombia,I cook these for her and sheloves them

R E P L Y

Theses Friojles came out great. I did need to add a little more salt and I hadsome trigisal so I added a little of that as well. Once served I added some Ajipicante to it and it brought the dish together.

R E P L Y

Great authentic Colombian flavor. Be sure to shred meat from ham hock intothe beans. Have grated panela (natural brown sugar) to go with chicharron,fried sweet plantains ad avocado.

Beware cooking times. I cooked mine for only 1 1/2 hours on the stove and they were closeto mushy. I checked instructions on a Goya bag and they call for 1 hour and 20 minutes.

I got cranberry beans at an Amish store in Blue Ridge, Ga. Then found Goya brandCargamentos , 2 types, light and dark red at Buford Farmers Market in Atlanta.

R E P L Y

What can you use instead of pork ?

R E P L Y

Beef or just beef or vegetable stock for a vegetarian version.
