I tried the technique shown here and I noticed I don't have the hurting gas like I often have, even from the canned beans. I cooked up a 2 lb bag of pinto beans, mashed them with the immersible blender, used a portion of them for tonight's burritos and the rest were put in freezer bags, ready for the next burrito night! It is a long process, so I gambled and cooked enough for later. Thank you for keeping your mom's recipes on RUclips
This is the very first video I watched when I discovered this amazing woman a few years ago. I watched it again and was flooded with emotion and reminiscent joy. I miss her so much as so many of us do. I love how she says OLIGOSACCHARIDES😂 What a blessing she was to all of us . She made you feel like you were her personal friend, even though she didn’t even know I existed.🥰🙏✝️
We Will All meet in Heaven!! She has a HUGE FOLLOWING!!!! I Love both of them too?! So Sweet. & Down to Earth!! She’s a Great Cook!! She’ll most likely be Helping with the “Marriage Supper of the Lamb!!”🙌🙌💓💓🙏🙏👏👏👑🥰🕊️🕊️🕊️
I just found her today 4/6/2020.... I learned a lot today. And even learned how to make dumplings. I'm soooo sorry to hear she's passed away. She's a good teacher. Really explained everything so calmly. Thanks so much
Me too! Tried soaking overnight the other day with baking soda. Came out horribly after cooking till tender the next day. They smelled and were putrid! And they tasted like baking soda besides! The chickens wouldn't even go near em! Ugh... Gonna try this method soon! Sorry you had to go so I have to say thank you in memoriam. Bless you and yours.
My grandmother is 104 years old and she said that the secret to her longevity is that she ate pinto beans almost everyday in her adult life. Cooked simply. Thanks for your informative demonstration!
Love your story, Thomas. My great grandmother lived to be 104 and while I don't know everything about her diet, I do know that she loved to eat one chocolate as well as a piece of cake with milk poured over top. I named my daughter after her💕
Another trick my mom taught me was if you needed to add more water to your beans after they have been cooking is to boil the water , you want that added water to be equally or hotter , not just room or faucet temp.
She got out of the cursed place just in time, things are about to get real ugly, most are asleep at the wheel, they are in for a very rude awakening soon.
Phyllis! You are my new queen!!! I made a pot of pintos right after watching this video, using your method, and to my surprise, it WORKED!!! We have been eating them for 3 days now, and no one has had any discomfort! Especially me...from my guy! lol! Thank you so much! I will be forever grateful and will ALWAYS use this method! :)
Cooking a big pot of dried pinto beans today! Wed 2/9/22 so checked back to Phyllis's recipe!! Thanks for keeping all her recipes up online! They are our Encyclopedia we refer back to often!
Our adult son started the soak last night...ALL FIVE POUNDS! So I guess we'll be having pintos in one form or another for a LONG time! LOL. No problem though, because now I can use Mama Phyllis' recipe, wonderfully simplified, along with dumplins, which the whole family loves!
I'm goin to try it this way, but just a couple thoughts. Never pour boiling hot water down your drain, always turn on the cold water with it. That boil water "can" deform your PVC drain pipes. And second, never use hot water straight out of the faucet to cook with, hot water sits in a water tank and "could" have bacteria in it. Phyllis, you are a gem, my wife died several yrs ago and she was the cook, and she loved doing it. But I only learned how to use the micowave and so I can't cook the beans the way she did. With your way I believe I'll have me some good pinto's soon. Oh, and she used "smoked turkey legs" in her beans, minus the bones. But I am going to try the dumplins.
In the 60's when I was a kid, Granny had me sort the beans like that on the table. then she would cook them up, make cornbread, with white cornmeal, fry some potatoes with onion, slice a tomato and cantaloupe. Man that was a meal to behold. Sometimes she would make some skillet fudge.
Wow. Did we have the same Grandma?! That's how my Grandma was when I helped her in the kitchen. She taught me a lot about cooking, canning and cleaning!
My mother had me do that in the early 2000s I found it got very boring, we stopped being so thorough when I and later my younger brothers started eating more, we also got bigger pots and pans.
I'm a disabled veteran who had to have a total colectomy after a military injury and you saved my ability to enjoy one of my most favorite foods in my life. I've tried some many ways of cooking them and they were always intolerable for my digestion. Legumes are so healthy in many varieties and I lived on them alone many times, so thank you dearly for giving me back the gift of being able to tolerate these again!
ion77799 if you need some help l am in Ohio. I know what its like to be hurt. Maybe l can find foods better for you to handle. I use a vita mix a lot. I look up foods for a diabetic friend.
Doloris Seeley -- deloris in OHIO- please would love some help. Do you have a sister called Mary?precious lady was so kind to me &’my 3 girls- mary Seeley. Connection?
have you tried soaking the beans over night then using a pressure cooker? you have not had beans until you put them in a pressure cooker. the cook time is 1 hour 30 min it really does a great job for something i eat nearly everyday.
My mother used to make chicken and dumpling soup when I was a kid and I loved the dumplings the best (from the chicken and veggies). I'm 57 now and I bought a bag of dried pinto beans at the store today and I've never made them before. Perfect time for this video. I love that she added dumplings to them.
Over 10 years ago I saw this video and searched for it today to learn how to cook pinto beans using the 3 cook/rinse method. I am changing my diet to a plant based diet that calls for beans as the main source of protein. My beans are on their final segment of cooking. I also added a piece of kombu, a seaweed which also eliminates bean gas. In cooking dry beans we avoid consuming the harmful compounds found in the linings of canned beans and we also can avoid salt in our beans if we wish.
The older the pinto beans the darker they look in the package that is another reason to screen them prior to cooking and always remember to check the expiration date or BEST BY date. Thank you Mrs. Phyllis I will try your method today😋👩🍳💕
I treasure Phyllis's recipes and memories of her. This recipe or bean cooking method is so wonderful . Czechs and Germans prepare spaetzle in a similiar manner to dumplings. Spaetzle usually come as a pasta like dumpling or homemade as here in this video. Thanks for showing this again !
*Baking soda is what my mom always used. Once the beans are boiling very hard (about 20 minutes after they're boiling very good) add 3 - 4 tablespoons of baking soda. Stir, stir, stir!! All of that foam, green & yellow colored foam, is the gas that's concentrated. Pour ALL of that water & foam out. Add NEW water. You can cook as usual, OR, do the process with the baking soda one more time. I always do it twice. Our family has NO PROBLEMS with gas, all thanks to my mom knowing how to get rid of that gas. Now, be sure to fix a big cast iron skillet of yellow cornbread. Oh, don't forget the sweet onion!!*
While the beans are boiling, just add a tablespoon of sugar in them at least 30 mins before getting done. The sugar will not only take the gas out of the beans but will also make you a thick gravy. This also works great with crockpot cooked beans too.
My experience with pintos is the darker the older they are and you can boil them for hours and they don't get soft. Another thing I learned is how to save the beans when you forget you're boiling them and they burn. First thing is set the pot in cold water then scrape the burnt beans out into another pot fill with water and throw a peeled potato in it boil until they're soft and throw away the potato. I gaurantee you the beans won't have a burnt taste to them. If some are stuck to the bottom of the pot don't put them in with the others.
I soak my dry beans in water, for two hours, with one tablespoon of salt, one tablespoon of baking soda and two tablespoons of flour.(any kind) Rinse well and they should cook done in just two hours. Eliminates the gas and speeds up dinner 👍
I had a neighbor who was from Mexico. She said they eat beans for breakfast allot along with other times. She showed me how she cooked them and it was very interesting. I really liked her method. Never stop the cooking process once you start the cooking. Rinse well at the beginning and start the cooking. Always keep a pot of water on the stove boiling water and whenever the water boils down and gets low, add more boiling water....never cold or unboiled water. Keep on going till they are soft...then season however you want. Its worth a try and keeps the flavor also.
I have eaten pinto beans for almost 68 years and never, ever, heard of cooking them they way you did, and I love dumplings, never knew how to make them! Thank you so much for your videos!
Glad this worked for you Vonesh. I don't think I mentioned this on the video but once I fixed pinto beans and put 2 very large videlia onion into the pot about twenty minutes before they were done. They were so good I ate the whole pot over a period of about 4 hours. I just couldn't stop eating them. So every year when the videlia onion hit the market I fix pinto beans just so I can add a whole bunch of onion with the pinto beans. I always appreciate your comments. Phyllis
Thank so much for showing us how to correctly stop the gas, I looked for years for a way to get the gas out of the beans, with no luck. so just stopped eating beans. and I love beans. So much is lost from one generation to the next. thanks again. May Jesus keep you and your family safe. God Bless.
This happened to pop up couple days ago. I have tried different recipes for tastes and stop gas. As a three-year-old child my aunt made me sit at the table until I ate my lima beans. I ended up falling asleep and not eating the beans. But now that I am way older and the fact that beans are nutritious, I thought that there has to be a way to cook these things. I figured I would try this recipe, because this was a totally different recipe. I did the next day and I am so delighted! Not only did they taste good to me, there was no gas! I am sorry to just find out she passed away. I so wished I could have told her what she has done for me. She has given a gift that keeps on giving! May the Lord Bless her while is sleeps! Also bless her family!
I grew up eating pinto beans and dumplings. But when I tried to make it myself the gas was to painful. Now I see what I was doing wrong and will try them again. Thank you.
I see your comment was last year but in case you see this - what do you do with the potato? It's added whole? Does it dissolve in the bean gravy or do you pull it out, what next? Thanks!
Peel it and toss it in. After they're done, toss the potato in the garbage...DO NOT EAT! Lol! You will have horrible gas if you do. You can also use a couple of whole raw carrots the same way.
Loved watching you mix your dumplin' dough! Reminded me of Mamaw when she made homemade biscuits in her dough bowl, a wedding gift hand carved by her father! I have that dough bowl today! ❤️
Miss Phyllis, you are my very favorite food expert and you are wonderful to share your knowledge with all of who are eager to learn how to make such good meals for our families. I don't think I am presumptuous saying , YOU ARE AMERICA'S MOST CHARMING CHEF and such a patient teacher. We love you! We're all hopeful you can create a book containing your recipes and wonderful tips and of course Mr Bucky's input as well as your precious doggies and cats who love you so much! Lots of love to you and your family. ❤️ Elizabeth Conboy
Michael Harren Meee THREE!! She is so calm and chill and seems to have a lot of great insights on life, so intelligent. She reminds me of my Nana and her recipes actually work. Being born in the Southwest and having lived in Texas for forty years, I've eaten my fair share and then some of pinto beans! I've never ever heard of pintos with dumplings, my family might revolt against me if I did, since in their opinion, dumplings are for either chicken or for apples!
Very informative with a different spin using the dumplings. I appreciate the time you took making this video. I enjoy learning... Education is key to so much! You are very calming to listen to, and that's good for me, as I am high-strung, and I appreciate those who aren't. They relax me! Thank you!
I wanted to cook pinto beans and I knew who to look up to get it right! Better than expected I'm going to do it with dumplins, then with bell peppers and onions, thanks y'all ... I miss her but it's super sweet to have these sweet, made with care and love videos. God bless ya'll thanks for keeping it going. Lifted my spirits. 🙏🏾🥰💜💯💛
What we always called soup beans, were a mix of all sorts of dry beans; it's funny what different areas call things; I love that about all of us from all different places.💖
@@janetbrowning9089 ❣️My husband is from Virginia & He said they don't call pinto beans soup beans, it's Navy Beans, & I'm from Arkansas and my Grandma never called pintos, soup beans... I guess you could put them into your soup but everyone always knows Navy Beans as soup beans.
I just made this exactly as you instructed except at the start of cooking i added a chopped sauted onion, garlic an green pepper. And at the end some frozed green beans under the dumplings. I also used the entire bag of beans which made so much food. I could feed a small army with this pot of absolutely deliciousness bean stew. Wow. Thank you so much. My husband loved it.
I too am high strung so Phyllis with her soft, slow intelligent speech is very calming. Thanks to her family for keeping these on you tube. Her life and marriage to Mr Bucky was sweet and enviable!
Omg, I thought they was worms and would throw all of it out. Until age of 30 when my husband (who was a farmer when he was young through college) He laughed and said we can plant them and get plants to help cut cost of buying. He said the same it was the root. Boy I felt dumb. I grew up in CA and he grew up in TN where we reside now. His mom doesn't cook like she used to so he said her cooking isn't as good. So learning special little secrets that I had never heard of is so wonderful. Thank you! 😘🤗
I really enjoyed your video, you made my stress go away! Your the type of person every family needs! You are an excellent teacher! My beans are soaking now, Thanks for Sharing
never heard of pintos and dumplings - but will be trying this - and will definitely be trying the boiling 3-times method to get rid of the gas problem. I usually soak mine over night but never just boil for a while the next day - cook until done - so I'm excited to try this. My sister tried once to put everything she ever heard of that would remove the gas from beans -and it still did not work. I will share this method with her too. Love dried beans - favorite is the great northern beans. Hey, just reading a few comments - has someone said this nice lady passed away? Hope not - but if so, I know she's in heaven with my friend JESUS.
being a diabetic myself, what i do know about how the body processes the bean, with the exception of a few,is that the body of a diabetic breaks down the bean like a complex carb without spiking the blood sugar levels and the fibers help maintain good blood sugar levels thus giving one the feeling of an energy boost.
@@Murpheys. This is the truth, just remember to never combine beans with rice, always add a protein or vegetable side. If the beans are combined with rice, tortillas will make insulin spike. :)
You are right no gas what a wonderful surprise When I made this my husband said these were the best beans he had ever had and we loved the dumplings Thank you Thanks again
Great video! I’m Hispanic and I love beans. I’ve tried several methods recommended to me for cooking them. To no avail really, other than they are delicious. I’ve never even heard of pintos with dumplings. I’m so excited to try them out. Thank you so much for your tips! 😊👍😋
Hey Phyllis some of my guest like the beans with that oligosaccharides in them and some of them dont. So I just rinsed the beans and boiled them. My Grandmother told me, God rest her soul, said to eat one slice of pineapple before you eat a bowl and one slice after and you wont get the gas. And it works! Thanks for your video, you're the best.
rob good That may work bc of the bromelain (enzyme that digests protein) in the pineapple? It's concentrated in the "core"... the part some people discard bc it's too fibrous for many.
Laurie Paris, how do you eat the core of a pineapple? As I cut them up, I crew on the left over core to get the sweet part but have never eaten the tough core.
Mother nature intended for pinto beans to darken over time to a brownish color. However, it’s tougher selling a darker pinto bean than selling a brighter pinto bean when it comes to certain markets. When pintos are first harvested they are typically much lighter in color, but as the days + weeks + months pass pinto beans naturally darken due to exposure to light + heat + the natural elements.
Oh so sorry to hear the news. This is my first time watching her and been seeing several of her videos today. I fell in love with her cooking and her explanation as she goes along. I love that. Not too many do that. That's southern culinary. But, me being a Latina woman, I do degas my beans too. But I do Chile beans or mashed beans with the pintos. God bless her. May she RIP
Phyllis, I just wanna be your neighbor and crash your house at dinner time everyday... Your always making things that look so good... Even if we follow your recipes it wouldn't be the same as tasting your food. Thank you for all your great videos... Love Ya!
My mom always made dumplings in our beans but her doughnut didn’t use a leavening in hers.the basic recipe was 1 1/2 Cup all purpose flour, 1/2 cup of milk and 1 egg. Though they were cooked like yours. I had never ever heard of anyone else putting dumplings in their beans. When we were in Germany landlord made spaetzle and dropped them by small tsp. Into boiling liquid and the recipe was similar to the spaetzle that is put through a sieve. We all loved the dumpling so we had to at least double the recipe. I will have to try your recipe the next time I fix beans and take a few and put your dumpling in and do a comparison. I have a feeling that I will like both. TFS My name is Phyllis also
OMG, I love this lady. I've never managed to duplicate the taste of the pinto beans my mother made throughout my childhood and by the time I thought to ask her for her recipe, her memory was about gone and she never wrote anything down. But this very simplified recipe sounds like it may render one of my fondest childhood tastes. I loved the "soup" as much as the beans and crumbling the cornbread into it. This video is so informative, aside from the recipe. Wonderful surrogate "Mama!"
If it wasn't for pinto beans, I would have starved to death. Really! We were very poor and that is what we lived on... our main source of protein. We moved from Alabama to Chicago in the mid 50's and Mama used to spread the beans out on the table and roll them around (to check for rocks) and Mama's friends (from up there) asked what she was doing... She would tell them she was "rolling the gas out of them"! ha hah ha... They didn't know any better! :)
We ate pinto beans as well. My pop always cooked them so that the broth was nice and clear brown. Beautiful color. Then my mom would serve us a bowl. She would add a dollop of sour cream or some cheese and some chopped onion and tomato. Delicious.
There is an amazing grandma on here who teaches how see cooked in the depression. She sadly passed as well. So Thank you for allowing this sweet lady to share to the world!
My Dad's favorite meal was a big pot of pintos and a pan of cornbread ... I think my Mom cooked beans for him several times a month. I have always soaked mine overnight in water and baking soda and then do the parboil before I put them on to cook. I am going to try your method of the 3 boils next time. My Dad also grew kale in his garden and gave it to everyone in the neighborhood. When he first started giving it to them, none of them knew what it was as it wasn't much of a southern thing back then and he had to get his starts from my aunt up north. Your beets made me really miss my Mom's pickled beets. She also put cloves in hers and canned many quarts every year. When we finished all the beets in the jar, we would boil eggs and peel them and put them in the jar to pickle the eggs ... they were always so pretty when you took them out of the red beet juice. Thank you for some wonderful memories :)
OH! Wow. Pinto beans with cornbread and copious amounts of iced tea is about as good as it gets. I can't wait to try them with dumplings...what a treat that would be.
Tried the exact recipe. Worked out amazingly. i added some diced jalapeno peppers and added some red pepper flakes as i like my food a little on the spicy side. but the little dumplings turned out great and the beans were also nice and tender! thanks so much Phyllis
I rewatch these because I loved this woman and her gentleness.
Amen me too. 🤗

While the beans are boiling, just add a tablespoon of sugar in them at least 30 mins before getting done. The sugar will not only take the gas out of the beans but will also make you a thick gravy. This also works great with crockpot cooked beans too.
Phyllis’s channel was one of the first I found when we were locked down. She helped me feel like life was normal.
My experience with pintos is the darker the older they are and you can boil them for hours and they don't get soft. Another thing I learned is how to save the beans when you forget you're boiling them and they burn. First thing is set the pot in cold water then scrape the burnt beans out into another pot fill with water and throw a peeled potato in it boil until they're soft and throw away the potato. I gaurantee you the beans won't have a burnt taste to them. If some are stuck to the bottom of the pot don't put them in with the others.
My elders taught me baking soda at the very end or when they are just bout done! Works everytime! Thank you!
Naw baking soda from the beginning.
I was taught that also from my granny. Also only Casserole brand bean's. The lighter the bean's the quicker they cook
Kita, I was taught the same thing. It breaks down the seed coat and they cook faster, too.
I soak my dry beans in water, for two hours, with one tablespoon of salt, one tablespoon of baking soda and two tablespoons of flour.(any kind) Rinse well and they should cook done in just two hours. Eliminates the gas and speeds up dinner 👍
Now they say the baking soda keeps you from absorbing the proteins in the beans. I wonder if they changed something in the baking soda?
I had a neighbor who was from Mexico. She said they eat beans for breakfast allot along with other times. She showed me how she cooked them and it was very interesting. I really liked her method. Never stop the cooking process once you start the cooking. Rinse well at the beginning and start the cooking. Always keep a pot of water on the stove boiling water and whenever the water boils down and gets low, add more boiling water....never cold or unboiled water. Keep on going till they are soft...then season however you want. Its worth a try and keeps the flavor also.
You just keep adding the boiling water to the beans till they are done.
I have eaten pinto beans for almost 68 years and never, ever, heard of cooking them they way you did, and I love dumplings, never knew how to make them! Thank you so much for your videos!
Such a gentle lady with a gentle voice. Tragedy she has been taken from us. Praying for her.
Glad this worked for you Vonesh. I don't think I mentioned this on the video but once I fixed pinto beans and put 2 very large videlia onion into the pot about twenty minutes before they were done. They were so good I ate the whole pot over a period of about 4 hours. I just couldn't stop eating them. So every year when the videlia onion hit the market I fix pinto beans just so I can add a whole bunch of onion with the pinto beans. I always appreciate your comments. Phyllis
Phyllis Stokes God bless you and mr. Bucky. Have a nice evening and a better tomorrow. Is your favorite flower Pillsbury LOL

Good heavens, You're making me HUNGRY!
Phyllis Stokes i always eat pinto and beans period sometimes just with diced tomatoes and cook slowly until tender with cornbread
Phyllis Stokes that sounds yummy to try!
Thank so much for showing us how to correctly stop the gas, I looked for years for a way to get the gas out of the beans, with no luck. so just stopped eating beans. and I love beans. So much is lost from one generation to the next. thanks again. May Jesus keep you and your family safe. God Bless.
This happened to pop up couple days ago. I have tried different recipes for tastes and stop gas. As a three-year-old child my aunt made me sit at the table until I ate my lima beans. I ended up falling asleep and not eating the beans. But now that I am way older and the fact that beans are nutritious, I thought that there has to be a way to cook these things. I figured I would try this recipe, because this was a totally different recipe. I did the next day and I am so delighted! Not only did they taste good to me, there was no gas! I am sorry to just find out she passed away. I so wished I could have told her what she has done for me. She has given a gift that keeps on giving! May the Lord Bless her while is sleeps! Also bless her family!
I miss Ms. Phyllis. But it is good to still have her videos to watch. RIP, cooking lady!!!
I grew up eating pinto beans and dumplings. But when I tried to make it myself the gas was to painful. Now I see what I was doing wrong and will try them again. Thank you.
We just toss a clean uncooked potato in the pot let em cook away! It works every time(NO GAS)!
Thanks! I'm gonna try that!
I see your comment was last year but in case you see this - what do you do with the potato? It's added whole? Does it dissolve in the bean gravy or do you pull it out, what next? Thanks!
Even without soaking them overnight ? Just clean and rinse beans and toss in a potato ?
Is the potato skin on or peeled ?
Rosemary, sage and thyme will eliminate the gas.
Peel it and toss it in. After they're done, toss the potato in the garbage...DO NOT EAT! Lol! You will have horrible gas if you do. You can also use a couple of whole raw carrots the same way.
Thank you for continuing phyllis videos! These videos of her's warm up the season. And my heart 💖
Loved watching you mix your dumplin' dough! Reminded me of Mamaw when she made homemade biscuits in her dough bowl, a wedding gift hand carved by her father! I have that dough bowl today! ❤️
This recipe looks great, but I really wanna do is have a cup of coffee with Phyllis on the porch. Thanks for a great video!
Me too, imagine how much we would learn!
+Michael Harren That sounds wonderful! :)
Michael Harren Me to!!! Or some.Port wine hahaha and here all about her childwood and teenage years in the 50's and 60's!
Miss Phyllis, you are my very favorite food expert and you are wonderful to share your knowledge with all of who are eager to learn how to make such good meals for our families. I don't think I am presumptuous saying , YOU ARE AMERICA'S MOST CHARMING CHEF and such a patient teacher. We love you! We're all hopeful you can create a book containing your recipes and wonderful tips and of course Mr Bucky's input as well as your precious doggies and cats who love you so much! Lots of love to you and your family. ❤️ Elizabeth Conboy
Michael Harren Meee THREE!! She is so calm and chill and seems to have a lot of great insights on life, so intelligent. She reminds me of my Nana and her recipes actually work. Being born in the Southwest and having lived in Texas for forty years, I've eaten my fair share and then some of pinto beans! I've never ever heard of pintos with dumplings, my family might revolt against me if I did, since in their opinion, dumplings are for either chicken or for apples!
I love your instruction style - very soothing voice, very informative, and I learned a lot! Including a brand new word. Thanks
Wow, I have never heard of beans and dumplings! Brilliant!
I miss her but these recipes are her legacy and I still use them!
Very informative with a different spin using the dumplings. I appreciate the time you took making this video. I enjoy learning... Education is key to so much! You are very calming to listen to, and that's good for me, as I am high-strung, and I appreciate those who aren't. They relax me! Thank you!
Great tip. I have never seen dumplings in pinto beans. I will have to give it a try. Thanks.
Phyllis, thank you for being such a good friend to all of us watching and learning.
I wanted to cook pinto beans and I knew who to look up to get it right! Better than expected I'm going to do it with dumplins, then with bell peppers and onions, thanks y'all ... I miss her but it's super sweet to have these sweet, made with care and love videos. God bless ya'll thanks for keeping it going. Lifted my spirits. 🙏🏾🥰💜💯💛
Dumplins? Or dumplings??🤔
@@snowbird6855 I've always called them dumplins, and was glad to see Tee's comment! I think it's properly "dumplings" though!
I live in West Virginia. This is my beloved hubby homeplace. Pinto beans are called soup beans here.
What we always called soup beans, were a mix of all sorts of dry beans; it's funny what different areas call things; I love that about all of us from all different places.💖
Is right sister the hillbillies call it soup beans
❣️Soup beans are NAVY BEAN'S not any other kind of bean....
@@janetbrowning9089 ❣️My husband is from Virginia &
He said they don't call pinto beans soup beans, it's Navy Beans, & I'm from Arkansas and my Grandma never called pintos, soup beans... I guess you could put them into your soup but everyone always knows Navy Beans as soup beans.
@@l.wall.2505 Not "everyone"...sorry, although I respect that you call them that. We can just agree to disagree here. Take care
I just made this exactly as you instructed except at the start of cooking i added a chopped sauted onion, garlic an green pepper. And at the end some frozed green beans under the dumplings. I also used the entire bag of beans which made so much food. I could feed a small army with this pot of absolutely deliciousness bean stew. Wow. Thank you so much. My husband loved it.
Thank you so much for keeping your Mom's videos still available... My prayers and thoughts are with you and your family.
I too am high strung so Phyllis with her soft, slow intelligent speech is very calming. Thanks to her family for keeping these on you tube. Her life and marriage to Mr Bucky was sweet and enviable!
Omg, I thought they was worms and would throw all of it out. Until age of 30 when my husband (who was a farmer when he was young through college) He laughed and said we can plant them and get plants to help cut cost of buying. He said the same it was the root. Boy I felt dumb. I grew up in CA and he grew up in TN where we reside now. His mom doesn't cook like she used to so he said her cooking isn't as good. So learning special little secrets that I had never heard of is so wonderful. Thank you! 😘🤗
I really enjoyed your video, you made my stress go away! Your the type of person every family needs! You are an excellent teacher! My beans are soaking now, Thanks for Sharing
Mine too
Loved you Phyllis. You were an amazing woman! Your love lives on through your videos.
never heard of pintos and dumplings - but will be trying this - and will definitely be trying the boiling 3-times method to get rid of the gas problem. I usually soak mine over night but never just boil for a while the next day - cook until done - so I'm excited to try this. My sister tried once to put everything she ever heard of that would remove the gas from beans -and it still did not work. I will share this method with her too. Love dried beans - favorite is the great northern beans. Hey, just reading a few comments - has someone said this nice lady passed away? Hope not - but if so, I know she's in heaven with my friend JESUS.
being a diabetic myself, what i do know about how the body processes the bean, with the exception of a few,is that the body of a diabetic breaks down the bean like a complex carb without spiking the blood sugar levels and the fibers help maintain good blood sugar levels thus giving one the feeling of an energy boost.
Thanks for your comment. My husbands type 2 and I needed to know it was ok for him to eat, as he loves beans. :)
Electr
@@Murpheys. This is the truth, just remember to never combine beans with rice, always add a protein or vegetable side. If the beans are combined with rice, tortillas will make insulin spike. :)
You are right no gas what a wonderful surprise When I made this my husband said these were the best beans he had ever had and we loved the dumplings Thank you Thanks again
Still as good
I made beans your way again last week. I think of you dear Phyllis every time I make beans. R.I.P. I love you.
Barbara Miller did she pass?
Jt Rose
Sadly, yes she did 😢. Her son put a vid on her channel.
You are wonderful! Who wouldn't want to just hang out with you while eating good food!!! God bless you!
Great video! I’m Hispanic and I love beans. I’ve tried several methods recommended to me for cooking them. To no avail really, other than they are delicious. I’ve never even heard of pintos with dumplings. I’m so excited to try them out. Thank you so much for your tips! 😊👍😋
I've nvr heard of dumplings with pinto beans either by I luv both so I'll have to try this!
Hey Phyllis some of my guest like the beans with that oligosaccharides in them and some of them dont. So I just rinsed the beans and boiled them. My Grandmother told me, God rest her soul, said to eat one slice of pineapple before you eat a bowl and one slice after and you wont get the gas. And it works! Thanks for your video, you're the best.
good advise, lets see if works out!!!
I love all kinds of beans. Fresh, canned or either slices of pineapple?
rob good That may work bc of the bromelain (enzyme that digests protein) in the pineapple? It's concentrated in the "core"... the part some people discard bc it's too fibrous for many.
Laurie Paris, how do you eat the core of a pineapple? As I cut them up, I crew on the left over core to get the sweet part but have never eaten the tough core.
@@laurieparis2203 r
How interesting! I've never heard of pinto beans and dumplings.
I have never known anyone who cooks pinto beans and dumplings.I thought I had seen it all......lol. I loved watching your video.
My mom made Pinto bean dumplings yummmmmy
You complete cooking beans & then place dumplings in the boiling bean soup & boil till dumplings are cooked thouourly ‼️‼️
i never heard of making dumplings in beans before only in chicken soup, but thanks for the video about methods of getting the gas out
I'm definitely a fan of this mama's cooking!!!
I was just thinking of her today and she popped up. She was so sweet and smart.
"That's not a worm." LOVE her!
You could make the whole bag. I make a big pot and freeze them in baggies, they freeze well.
I love these videos - they STILL teach me and I STILL refer to them often. She always answered my questions and gave the best advice. LOVE
RIP Ms Phyllis. I just found you due to the coconut cake. Thank you for the treasures left behind. I’ll have to search. Condolences to her family
Just found you. You are very calming and I just appreciate your channel. You're the good and decent human most people forget they can be.
Mother nature intended for pinto beans to darken over time to a brownish color. However, it’s tougher selling a darker pinto bean than selling a brighter pinto bean when it comes to certain markets. When pintos are first harvested they are typically much lighter in color, but as the days + weeks + months pass pinto beans naturally darken due to exposure to light + heat + the natural elements.
Thanks for this information.
Candice W I didn't know this. I have only cooked and eaten the darker pinto beans!
It seems the darker ones take a little longer to cook. I think it's because they are older and drier.
Candice W p
I freeze my left over beans after I have looked the ones i'm eating, it keeps your beans from aging and drying out..
Just stopping by Phyllis to wish you Happy Holidays. Hope you are feeling well and things are settled with you. Love and Light.
Phyllis, you are just the bomb. Thank you for your gentle, steady spirit.
Elizabeth !did you no that Phyllis passed,seen her son on her page the other day ..as sad..
The darker ones are old beans and they take a lot of time to get them soft about 8 hrs.
this is how my grandma used to make dumplings, only she made them about twice as big. Our family always liked big dumplings.
Oh so sorry to hear the news. This is my first time watching her and been seeing several of her videos today. I fell in love with her cooking and her explanation as she goes along. I love that. Not too many do that. That's southern culinary. But, me being a Latina woman, I do degas my beans too. But I do Chile beans or mashed beans with the pintos. God bless her. May she RIP
I re-subscribed to this channel because I enjoy how Phyllis explained how to do thing's in a calming voice.
Phyllis, I just wanna be your neighbor and crash your house at dinner time everyday... Your always making things that look so good... Even if we follow your recipes it wouldn't be the same as tasting your food. Thank you for all your great videos... Love Ya!
Bryant Fernquist
Why dinner time 😁? Why not lunch time (broad daylight)? Or you want more than dumplings along with the Pinto 😁
Bryant Fernquist 9
Me too!!. Let's all meet up next week!!?
You remind me of Keanu Reeves . Very handsome and hot you are.Bryant Fernquist 9.
My mom always made dumplings in our beans but her doughnut didn’t use a leavening in hers.the basic recipe was 1 1/2 Cup all purpose flour, 1/2 cup of milk and 1 egg. Though they were cooked like yours. I had never ever heard of anyone else putting dumplings in their beans. When we were in Germany landlord made spaetzle and dropped them by small tsp. Into boiling liquid and the recipe was similar to the spaetzle that is put through a sieve. We all loved the dumpling so we had to at least double the recipe. I will have to try your recipe the next time I fix beans and take a few and put your dumpling in and do a comparison. I have a feeling that I will like both. TFS My name is Phyllis also
Thank you!! I never knew to wait till the end to add salt. I've been avoiding dry beans for years because I hated the leathery skins! 😝 You rock.
I'm just sooo greatful for theses videos she left us!🤗💞🙏
OMG, I love this lady. I've never managed to duplicate the taste of the pinto beans my mother made throughout my childhood and by the time I thought to ask her for her recipe, her memory was about gone and she never wrote anything down. But this very simplified recipe sounds like it may render one of my fondest childhood tastes. I loved the "soup" as much as the beans and crumbling the cornbread into it.
This video is so informative, aside from the recipe. Wonderful surrogate "Mama!"
Phyllis, you are amazingly simply sensible. Love your show
If it wasn't for pinto beans, I would have starved to death. Really! We were very poor and that is what we lived on... our main source of protein.
We moved from Alabama to Chicago in the mid 50's and Mama used to spread the beans out on the table and roll them around (to check for rocks) and Mama's friends (from up there) asked what she was doing... She would tell them she was "rolling the gas out of them"! ha hah ha... They didn't know any better! :)
RonRay was poor too. Lots of pinto beans as the main meal.
RonRay I hear ya. I am 49 on disability and if it wasn't for pinto and paruvian beans I would starve. 💜
Poor too. Lots of beans and bread.
We ate pinto beans as well. My pop always cooked them so that the broth was nice and clear brown. Beautiful color. Then my mom would serve us a bowl. She would add a dollop of sour cream or some cheese and some chopped onion and tomato. Delicious.
I remember those day very well. Yea for pinto beans. These days I love beans and I can them for a quick meal of beans and cornbread.
That was a great demonstration, touching on things that I haven't heard during other lectures! The lady is a wonder! God Bless her!
I love rewatching. I'm about to make beans. You are loved and remembered.
Lady, you're a genius!!! Thank you!!
I love your calm voice. I have learned something today. Thank you!
I miss this wonderful person so bad!!!!! Her son is doing a good job keeping her and Mr. Bucky's memory alive!!!!!
There is an amazing grandma on here who teaches how see cooked in the depression. She sadly passed as well. So Thank you for allowing this sweet lady to share to the world!
My Dad's favorite meal was a big pot of pintos and a pan of cornbread ... I think my Mom cooked beans for him several times a month. I have always soaked mine overnight in water and baking soda and then do the parboil before I put them on to cook. I am going to try your method of the 3 boils next time. My Dad also grew kale in his garden and gave it to everyone in the neighborhood. When he first started giving it to them, none of them knew what it was as it wasn't much of a southern thing back then and he had to get his starts from my aunt up north. Your beets made me really miss my Mom's pickled beets. She also put cloves in hers and canned many quarts every year. When we finished all the beets in the jar, we would boil eggs and peel them and put them in the jar to pickle the eggs ... they were always so pretty when you took them out of the red beet juice. Thank you for some wonderful memories :)
We had the eggs pickled in beet juice at an office party one year and they were a big hit with everyone.
Great idea for my leftover beet juice! Thanks for leaving these videos up! Greetings from California.🇺🇸
A very good to know skill in cooking my favorite food - I’ll use it forever. Thank you!
OH! Wow. Pinto beans with cornbread and copious amounts of iced tea is about as good as it gets. I can't wait to try them with dumplings...what a treat that would be.
I haven't watch one of her videos in forever. Time to go down memory lane and watch a bunch again.
Tried the exact recipe. Worked out amazingly. i added some diced jalapeno peppers and added some red pepper flakes as i like my food a little on the spicy side. but the little dumplings turned out great and the beans were also nice and tender! thanks so much Phyllis
