    Serving Suggestion

    Cowboy beans and totopos with ricotta salata

    Soak dried pinto beans in cold water overnight. Boil in a pan of fresh water with a bay leaf, halved onion and a Cool Chile Co dried Chile De Àrbol until tender. Caramelise a sliced onion and green chilli in a little oil in a casserole dish, then add a tin of drained plum tomatoes, crushing them with your hand. Pour in the beans and their cooking water and simmer until the sauce is thick enough to coat the beans. Add smoked paprika to taste and mash slightly. Serve with crumbled ricotta salata for scooping up with just fried totopos.

    Reheating corn tortillas:

    - For best results griddle tortillas one at a time in a dry pan, toast both sides until warmed through and little brown spots appear if desired.

    - Use a little spray of water to help re hydrate the tortillas as they reheat if a few days old.

    - If necessary tortillas can be kept warm for about 15-20 minutes after reheating by stacking them in a folded clean tea towel, top and serve promptly.

    Storage:

    Keep refrigerated. Once open, wrap and consume by use by date.

    Suitable for freezing (freeze on day of purchase and consume within 1 month).

    To cook from frozen, prise one tortilla off at a time and heat in a hot pan on both sides or defrost in the packet overnight in the fridge.
