Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups pinto beans cooked
  • 1 pot boiling water
  • 2 cups cornmeal sifted unbolted
  • cup self-rising flour
  • ½ tsp baking soda

Instructions
 

  • Have a pot of water and a pot of beans boiling.
  • Mix meal, flour and baking soda together in a large bowl.
  • Mix meal mixture and beans/soup until moist enough to work with. If you don’t have enough bean soup to moisten the meal, you may add some boiling water. Keep a bowl of cold water nearby to moisten and cool hands in order to work with meal/bean mixture.
  • Once moist enough to work with, form bean dumplings and drop pinto boiling water. Dumplings are ready when they float to the top.
