Rice and Beans (Dominican Style)

Criss, we're ashamed of you !!

With a sweet young thing, all you go home for is food. You may lose your reputation.

At least don't blame your weight on the beans. They help to satisfy the appetite and prevent overeating.

Cris, I'm so disillusioned,

I thought you went to the "apartment" daily for a little noontime delight. But, then again, if you did do it daily, you would only weigh about 150 lbs! It is a lot of work.

Sorry about straying from the habichuela thread...continue.

No problem! Anything about my favorite person,"ME"" IS Dominican Realated!

.....and since I am "Full Of Beans" you are "OK" there too! My wife works with me,so I go home to get away from her!
She leaves at 2 pm.I have pretty much given up on "Nooners" during the week.They leave me ,shall we say,"Drained"! I do like Saturday and Sunday afternoons there though! And like to pass by on my way home from work to do a "Security" check!Since I am paying the "bill" I don't get much exercise,but they do,"Mountain Climbing" and all that! CCCCCCCCCc

Rice and Beans. I love it alone, or w/ meat, and platanos maduros on the side. Can only eat it once a month but I enjoy it very much. Is not bland food at all. I need the recipe for beans w/ coco, have to look that up.

Of the Different Manners of Eating The Rice and The Bean when in Hispaniola

• Encima: The most commont form. The beans are poured over a mountain of rice. Salsa or grasa from the stewed meat is optional.
• Al lado: For those who don't like their beans to go dry after the rice sponges up the sauce. This technique is not popular among real men, specially obreros, because the effective area of the plate is greatly reduced, preventing the volteo rations required for life in the tropics. However, rations big enough to produce ameme can be secured with the infamous Termopacs.
• En fuentecita: The smart solution to the previous situation. The beans are kept outside of the plate, and one dips the rice in them as one eats. How aristocratic, eh?
• Volc?n: A favorite of construction personnel at all levels, because it resembles a pile of mezcla. Pile a mountain of rice, make a hole in the center and fill it with beans. Fun for the whole family.

Best Restaurant...

for rice and beans? Everyone has their favorite way to prepare them... what's the best restaurant in Sosua or Cabarete for this delicacy?

CCCCC, would your mom-in-law give out her recipe for the soup?

No way......

What is so special about eating white boiled rice with beans that seems straight from a can. I mean, totally tasteless food, simply to fill the stomach.

Rice and Beans is not THE BEST but it's really tasty if its well
cooked. Should come to eat at my house.......jejejej
