Nearly every recipe I have seen here, while looking delicious, seems more oriented towards a side dish than main course. I love beans and want to know more. Please advise.

SymmetryrtemmyS posted:I added some slices of squash and andouille to that Santa Maria beans recipe, thickened it with a little roux, added more stock, and made it a soup once. You can do something similar with a lot of these recipes, or serve them over rice/bread. I'll be putting it over rice, probably. Everything is better over rice.

My beans were no joke. I threw in 4 ham-hocks for the smoke and shredded them near the end. The whole dish was incredibly flavorful and robust. Thanks for convincing me to give it a shot, folks.

So I've tried making baked beans several times and the beans always come out hard and crunchy. What can affect beans cooking? These bastards sit on the heat for like 6 hours and they are the consistency of peanuts. I've tried a few different kinds of beans as well.

22 Eargesplitten posted:Okay. That was my next step for trying locally, but I wasn't sure kidney beans were a Mexican food thing or if they would just have pinto and black. Pretty much any ethnic market will have a wide variety of beans. Kidneys will be among them.

22 Eargesplitten posted:I'm also planning on putting at least that much back as pork shoulder, because the dish I'm trying to replicate had pulled pork in it too. I've still got a lot of pork shoulder in the freezer, and I can only eat chili so many meals in a row. Not in the spirit of the thread, but extra pulled pork is great in congee as well. Highly recommend checking that out. Also tacos/burritos/quesadillas... Also salads... With/in eggs, particularly omelettes... Piled on top of a burger... As a stand alone pulled pork sandwich... What I'm trying to say is pulled pork is a pretty versatile food that's good when combined with any situation that ends with it in your mouth.

If you add something super acidic to dried beans before they soften they will never soften and be tough. Same if you add sugars before softening. As such I am suspicious of this Orange juice thing. Throwing them in after the fact, sure. But while cooking?

Butch Cassidy posted:The lazy cook's black beans on Serious Eats are delicious and as as food can get: I made this last night. Found it to be very lackluster(but the beans DID soften!). Just not a whole lot going on in it flavor wise.

If you buy dried beans and can them yourself you have the best of both worlds, I think. That's something I'm looking into, at least.
