I love cowfat. Especially the that nice fatty eye you find in a rib-eye steak!!Cranberry wrote:I don't know what makes them particularly "strawberry" but I've eaten them before...they're certainly pinto beans.cowtime wrote:That's one strange pinto bean plant there, Cranberry. Could it be the elusive strawberry pinto?
Grandma use to always have strings of pintos still in the hull of course, hanging to dry in a spare room of her house.
As for green beans, my favorite is the half-runner. Can't beat them fresh out of the garden cooked with a little fat back and served up with sweet corn and tomatos since they are usually ready at the same time. Ummm.
If all I had to eat were the green beans cooked like they do in the northern reaches, forget it. There's no comparison.
I would never in my life put cow fat (or pig fat) in them, though. That's like contamination or something.
yummmmmmmmmm!!!!
I guess it would go well with pinto beans.
