Rebosero Bean
Description
An heirloom passed down for generations in rural Hidalgo, Mexico, this small, compact bean produces a rich, flavorful broth.
In Mexico, a rebozo is a shawl, often worn with panache by Mexico's lovelier residents. Perhaps if you were totally drunk you might think these pretty beans resemble a shawl, but who knows? Who cares? It's fun to say the word rebozo and it's more fun to eat these delicious beans. They have a rich bean broth and can be used in place of any traditional Mexican bean in recipes, especially refried beans.
