colander & add to meat. Stir in chili pepper pulp & cook 20 minutes (if
using chili powder, mix powder & flour into enough cold water to form paste
before adding to meat). Stir until smooth & add meat. Add oregano, cumin,
salt & bay leaves & cook slowly about 2 hours. Add a little water to keep
from burning but add as little as possible. Serve over beans. BEANS: Sort
beans carefully, throwing away bad ones. Soak beans overnight in room
temperature water. Drain off water & place beans in large cooking pot &
cover with fresh cold water. Add salt pork & oregano. Boil over medium heat
4-6 hours or until beans are nice & tender. Add water as water boils away.
Remove from water & drain. Serve by pouring chili sauce over beans. Never,
under any circumstances, cook beans with the chili sauce. (If you are in a
hurry, use 2 lbs canned red beans. In this case drain beans & put in a pot
& fill with cold water. Add salt pork & oregano & boil for 5 minutes. Drain
& serve with the chili sauce.)
