Good Pinto Beans

Featured Replies

Having lived in Texas for many years I am an avid eater of pinto beans.  I tried this brand, linked below, yesterday and I am here to tell you they are both the best and the cheapest.  I had been buying my pintos from Villa in Bangkok but they just keep raising the price and it is clear the beans are a bit old.

 

I finally went looking on Lazada and this brand  claims to be both organic and grown in Thailand, I don't know if that is true but they cooked up real nice at half the price of Villa!  https://shorturl.at/9LgNs

 

I have to say the many clearly bogus reviews of the beans on Lazada did give me pause, but the proof was in the beans.  

I love beans and no one in my Thai family would eat my chilli

For Thais, most beans are a desert food.   It's only in the last few years that red kidney beans started showing up in salads, I think.  I might be wrong but I have been here 25 years now and it seemed that one day red kidney beans made the jump from sweet to savory.

Same Same. My partner takes one bite of my non Thai recipes and says 'lovely'. Doesn't eat anymore.

Beans that is one protien staple I miss not having cooking facilities and relying on eating out.
The only protien alternatives as a vegetarian is tofu or the overfried egg

Rice n Beans staple of many other countries
