Camellia Pink Beans My Way!
The other day I picked up a package of Camellia brand Pink Beans and decided today was a good day to cook them. Now the package says to cook them one way but I'm trying my way with a bit of a Cajun twist. I soaked them just like I would red or white beans overnight.
Got the seasonings(onios, celery, garlic, diced Cherry bomb peppers from the garden and fresh bay leaves)along with some diced tasso and Wayne Jacobs Andouille. http://i1183.photobucket.com/albums/...3/DSC04035.jpg Beans added and time to simmer till done! http://i1183.photobucket.com/albums/...3/DSC04037.jpg |
Sure looks good.

The Pink Beans are coming along really nice. Smells fantastic in here!!!
I'll let 'em simmer a lil longer to thicken up a bit. http://i1183.photobucket.com/albums/...4/DSC04038.jpg |
Dang that looks great Sig. I love beans. My all time comfort food.

Pink Beans were done! http://i1183.photobucket.com/albums/...5/DSC04042.jpg I made a little salad of fresh Mazzarella, thin slices of Vidalia onion, a fresh cucumber and a small creole tomato drizzled with a creamy Italian dressing. http://i1183.photobucket.com/albums/...5/DSC04041.jpg Added some warmed buttered French bread slices and it was a delicious meal! http://i1183.photobucket.com/albums/...5/DSC04047.jpg Y'all should give the Pink Bean a try. We liked them pretty good here. They are a hearty bean that has a slight bit firmer texture than red kidney beans. http://i1183.photobucket.com/albums/...5/DSC04045.jpg |
As far as firmness are they in between a kidney and pinto? They looked nice and creamy. I like kidneys because they get nice and smooth but my wife likes pintos because they hold their firmness. I usually mix one pound of each when I do beans. To get a consistency we can both agree on.lol
