Nutrición y Cocina

This recipe for pinto beans with rice, which seems so familiar and simple to us, would not be known today if it weren't for the cultural exchange and food products that occurred after the discovery of America. Along with beans, many other products entered Europe through Spain, enriching our cuisine, such as corn, potatoes, tomatoes, strawberries, peanuts, and countless other products (pepper, pumpkin, pineapple, avocado, cherimoya, cocoa).
