I want the recipe to beans I want to taste really puerto rican.And a recipe with beef strips bell pepper onion garlis I think celery and you serve with rice

Answer 1

For PuertoRican Beans this is what you do

First of all if you want to make Fresh beans you will need a bag of dry Beans rinse them out and then put them in a pot cover them with water and boil them un til you are able to smooch one with a spoon ( as the water keeps evaporating keep adding more)

If you are using canned beans then you just have to rinse them and put them in the pot you don't have to wait a couple of hours for them to get soft cause they already are.

Once your beans are ready you want to add some cut up potatoes about 2 cups of water 1/2 a can of salsa de Tomate, 2 Tablespoons of Sofrito, 1 packet of Sazon,Some chopped up Recaito and Cilantro and some diced up cooking ham. And that is Pretty much it just cook it until the bean Juice gets thick and the Potatoes are fully cooked.

For The beef Strips
After you cut up the Peppers and the beef strips I would season it with some Adobo, Sazon, Garlic powder, Oil and Vinegar season it to your taste of course then I would let it all cook in the Pan .
It is all very simple if you have anymore questions just email me ok.

Answer 2

Yes Puerto Ricans are US citizens 1.Yes we've got US passports and we can journey through the us with simplest an identity 2.We are able to work over there similar to if we had been relocating via PR 3.We converse Spanish at residence, school and work, over 50% of Puerto Ricans do not know English (surprising although), however we've got an English class at our institution that its required and we get higher jobs if we all know English and a few phrases are blended between English and Spanish in our everyday talk.

Answer 3

Don't forget to add the spices.Add a packet of Sazon to the rice when cooking.Add a tablespoon or so of powdered Adobo to the meat and veggies when cooking.Before serving the rice,add a half a jar of Sofrito to the hot rice and mix.These spicing products are all available in the Spanish food section of larger grocery stores.I'm not plugging any certain brand,but Goya makes all of them.Check out their web site at Goya Foods,and you can see pictures of the items,and they have recipes too.
