My husband and I love the pinto bean flakes made by Taste Adventure. I
get them from Mountain People's Warehouse in Auburn, CA. (800-679-6733).
I buy them in a 10 pound box at about $2.13 a pound. One pound is a lot
of frijoles. They are instant but not without texture. Just add hot
water and let stand or add water and nuke a couple of minutes. Talk
about convenience food! These contain only beans and salt. Nothing
else. One cup of beans to about 3/4 c. water. Let stand a couple
minutes to absorb the water. They do get thicker if you let them stand
at room temp. By the way, I like them much better than canned frijoles,
they do NOT have that canned taste.
I asked about Jamaican spices recently and have since found a spice mix
I can order from Mountain People's made by Frontier Herbs. I'll give it
a try this order. Barbara
