Most often I just mix in a little Red Chili Powder
this comes in hot, Hotter... and ...."OH MY GOD WHAT WAS THAT....


As always DaddyBare, your threads are awesome. Long time rice fan here anyway...

Ha, the last sort of chili powder reminds me of a chili sauce I had sent to me from someone in the US, I cannot recall the name, but it was a tiny little bottle with a BIG warning label on it, not to give to infants or the elderly. Ha, it could melt steel I'm sure.

Hehe the funny thing about your recipes in the OP tho, remind me of the old recipe for Stone soup. I forget the story but the gist of it was;

A poor man had nothing to eat, and a stranger came along and told him he could make a delicious meal with just a stone. Perplexed the hungry man asked for this recipe.

As it goes, the stranger got a pot of boiling water and placed the stone into it.

"Hmm, perhaps with a potato, it would be a little better," he said. he hungry man found a raw potato and put it in the pot.

"An onion too, if there was one, would speed up the cooking." so the hungry man found an old dry onion in his cupboard and added it to the soup.

"Carrots. That would also go nicely in this." and so the hungry man found an old carrot and it too was added.

and this continued with other unconsidered leftover items the hungry man had around his kitchen.

By the end of the cooking, the hungry man saw that the stone soup was indeed wonderful, and he had never felt so full...

Rice and Beans.. with parsley, bacon, peppers, worcestershire sauce, polish sausage, onions, tomato paste, celery, oregano, garlic, salt, pepper, etc..

Great thread though!!

Are you sure about that? It's starch, which I always use to thicken up a sauce with stock cubes or other flavourings after the rice is cooked.

The Japanese have been using it to make sake for... how old is sake?

FYI "Ya Teh" is the more common form....dropping the a in the middle... when saying howdy... We Apaches use the word "Ha'andah" kind of HiYa welcome or come in...


I think what he was referring to was to a slang word for ya'at'eeh, which is what we Navajos (Dine) say, when saying "howdy"..

FYI

I love me some rice and beans.....yummy. It stores really well, puts meat on your bones and warms you up in the winter. If no meat is around to accompany it, take a fried egg (personally like over easy) or two and wahla you have a complete meal that will keep hunger at bay for several hours. Rice give you carbs, beans give you fiber and micro nutrients and eggs are a powerhouse of necessary vitamins, minerals and protein.

beans and rice takes too long to cook properly and most people wouldnt have the patience to stew over a dish for 5+ hours in a tshtf scenario.


How so? When cooking rice and beans the only thing that would take long is the beans and that depends on how you cook it. There are the cheap do it your self beans and there are the canned versions. If you don't have patience for the do it yourself, stack up on some cans. The canned beans shouldn't take more than 15-30 minutes tops to cook. If you want the do it yourself type, you can soak them overnight which is an alternative to slow simmer of a few hours (which you most likely referred to).

Rice shouldn't take you more than 45 minutes to cook, and if not then you are doing it wrong. Also you can cook in one sitting 2-3 days worth of food (if you have electricity).

interesting "freespirit1":How much baking soda total?

The gas comes from the bacteria in your("our") colons processing sugars for their own food.The baking soda must do something to the natural starches and sugars in the bean(?)

Thanks for the thread "Daddy bare":
Love me some red beans and rice(and cholulo brand hot sauce)! (Its the main staple in my 5gallon bucket "pantry").

I usually make a huge pot of beans, and it takes about 3-4 times of letting it bubble up after adding a teaspoon at a time.

Baking soda (or sodium bicarbonate) has so many healthful uses, so I'm sure that's why

I'm not going to list the uses here, but do some research and you will see.

Sofrito is delicious, and goes hand and hand with Sazon and adobo, two great seasonings. Definitely a staple in Latin islands, as well as the Caribbean.
