    As a Latino, the first time trying sweet beans in a pastry was so alarming. I still don’t like them, it’s so weird. Now sweet, fried plantains with a side of refried beans and avocado? Yes please!

      What? Red bean paste filling is one of the most delicious mochi fillings! Don´t be a bean Nazi.

        It’s all about the way you were raised. I’m just not used to adding sweet directly into the bean paste.

        It’s like British beans and Mexican beans, both are beans but their taste and prep is like night and day
