Spring #RanchoGordo #BeanClub haul!

Winter #RanchoGordo #BeanClub shipment is here! The crimson popcorn is the best I have ever had, and the black eyed peas have me looking forward to 2026. But I will be devouring those black garbanzos tonight.

Every time I go to a friend's apartment, he makes beautiful beans and I ask, oh, Rancho Gordo? and he gets a tearful look and reminds me he has been on the Bean Club waitlist for 10 years. I was on the waitlist for 10 years! But I remember the pain. I don't mean to gloat, just to share.

Spouse told me that secret bean cult peeps call themselves "The Leguminati". Ssh, secret name!

We are just a household of two, but a relative is also in #beanclub and she says she tries to make a pound of beans every week. Phew. (She has a household of four.) (I split my bean club with a friend, lest we be drowning in beans.) 🫘🫘

These are my far the laziest black-eyed peas I've ever made in my life. Just dried peas cooked in Better than Bouillon. I didn't even throw in a bay leaf. But I did my duty to divert disaster.

Just finished cooking two pounds of beans. One pound of buckeyes to go with tamales tomorrow. And a pound of royal coronas which will go in a creamy tomato sauce for dinner tonight.

@GenOlivier We’re having a Moroccan-inspired soup with green lentils and chickpeas, trying to do a better job of eating down our #RanchoGordo #beanclub stash. 😁
