Not A Pinto Set

Absolutely fantastic beans. Flavor is amazing.

I use these when I make Smikey Peruvian beans. Recipe is on Google. These beans are perfect for that recipe.

Foodocracy has been such a great way to try new and healthy foods. The flavor and textures are so amazing.

This is the only type of bean my Mexican family makes. Idk how pinto beans are always on menus at Mexican restaurants. These are far superior than most beans

I wanted to like these beans and support local small farmers. But, after trying to cook them several times, the results simply are not worth the effort. They take longer to cook than advertised. I never seem to be able to get the seasoning right. The taste is not really better than easier and shorter to cook varieties from the grocery store. And, most frustrating, like today, I have had to throw out cooked beans for the reasons above. Maybe I’m doing something wrong, but I’ve mastered many other cuisines and foods over time, only to fail here. I’m frustrated and it’s simply not worth the effort and time required to keep trying to get it right.

The Flor de Mayo beans should come with a warning:
Highly addictive! They cooked up beautifully, and the taste and texture are nothing short of luscious using only water. I'm hooked!

Great creamy bean!

All of the beans I have received are delicious! They taste fresh, grown with care and they ate clean! I have given some as gifts and everyone loves them!

I used these in a vegetable noodle soup. These remained the perfect firmness and had a nice interior softness. I would highly recommend for any bean recipe.

Thumbs up

The best!!

I've been consuming various versions of Mayocoba, Peruano, and Canary beans for years. And while there are distinctions between them as stated above, there are also similarities.
The bottom lime for me is, regardless of which variant I've had, these Paruano's are as good as any. Rich, creamy and full of flavor, even with the simplest preparation. I cooked my with a tablespoon of Penzey's Justice seasoning, 2 chopped garlic cloves, a bay leaf and a dried Pasilla pepper.
They were absolutely out of this world. I look forward to buying them again!

I cooked these with Kombu and and used in my vegan breakfast with 8 other plant based items. These were just firm enough and simply an exellent addition.

These were delicious and so creamy!

I'm a latecomer to bean appreciation and have only been cooking and eating beans for a few years. I like them but decided there was little variation and they were all kidney beans to me. Until I ate these a week or so ago. I made a huge pot of 2 pounds with some organic dried flavoring vegetables, dried mushrooms and a big leaf of wakame sea vegetable. And they're amazing whether I used them with celery in a bean salad or in a bowl of roasted butternut squash or by themselves with just some salt and crushed wakame sea vegetable. Not my mother's kidney beans at all! I have lots of other varieties downstairs to try, but I may need to buy more of these so I don't obsess about what to do when they're temporarily "out of stock".

I cooked the Peruano beans as is my custom with dried beans of their size - rinse three times and then cook for 30 minutes / np release in my Instant Pot with 2 bay leaves and .5" or so of kombu. Then I added veggies from my garden (kale and green beans) and other (carrots and celery) plus salt and some olive oil for a 1 minute / np release cook time. The beans added a nice creaminess as well as held their shape and texture, a wonderful base for your creativity. Try it with whatever veggies you have on hand. Enjoy!

Nice yellow beans really to cook!

10/10 this company is amazing

I’ve never had bayo beans before and I’m knew to making beans. I got the beans free from Foodacracy for earning purchasing points. I made a pot of bean without soaking first. Cooked the Rancho Gordo way and the primary beans way with: kombu, Caribbean bay leaf, large shallot, whole garlic cut in half, 1 arbol pepper…(brought pot of bean to full boil for 15 mins… then low simmer with lid half way on, checking in 25 mins intervals till done (apron. 1/12 hours. Then followed the Rancho Gordo Charro Beans recipe. I used a vegan bacon substitute. Delicious!!
