Frijol Negro Santanero (Oaxacan Black Bean)

Prized black beans from Oaxaca with rich flavor and a renowned bean broth. Smaller than your average black turtle beans, these tiny heirlooms are creamy and rich. The bean broth is so distinct that the beans are also known as Siete Caldos, or Seven Broths. Once cooked you can make refried beans and smear them on top of a tostada. Add some queso fresco (or some other mild, white cheese), cabbage, and salsa. Of course, you also can use the beans as you would any black turtle bean and you’ll be a very happy person. DETAILS: 16 oz Produced in Mexico under the supervision of the Rancho Gordo-Xoxoc Project
