Beans – Habichuelas – Frijoles
Rice and Beans are the daily staple of the Dominican Republic. So much they call it the Dominican Flag. Dominicans eat rice and beans every day. The color of the beans changes, but the dish is always the same. The main flavoring is the recaito that is used in most Dominican cooking. Whether you use dry or canned beans, they are still always welcome at the table in our house. Taco night happens once a week. I make a very large pot of beans so we have left overs. We then have tacos for lunch or dinner the next couple of nights.
