Directions
Pour the water and lard into a big pot and bringing it to a boil. Once it’s bubbling, add the beans. Let them cook over medium heat for about 2 to 2 and a half hours. After that, season with salt and keep simmering until the beans are nice and tender, which should take another 30 minutes or so. Keep an eye on the pot and give it a gentle stir now and then to make sure nothing sticks to the bottom. Once the beans are soft and flavorful, they’re ready to enjoy!
Serving Options To Try
Serve with a side of crusty bread or over steamed rice for a complete meal. A dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh herbs like cilantro can brighten the flavors. It also pairs well with a fresh green salad.
Storing Leftovers
Let the beans cool completely before storing. Keep them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. For longer storage, freeze in portions and thaw overnight in the fridge before reheating.
