Mark J. LewisI’m trying to recapture my dads recipe. At first I thought the green pepper was nuts, but the more I think about it, and I’m talking 40+ years ago, I think I recall something green in the beans. I may try it! Thanks for helping to re-spark my interest.1 year ago, Saturday, June 24, 2023

SueThis is a little different from the Portuguese Bean Soup I grew up with. My family is from the Azores, so I suppose it's possible that that's the difference, or someone changed it overtime. People do make changes to recipes. We never used green peppers. We used pink beans, bacon or linguica, 3 onions, garlic, tomato sauce, brown sugar, cumin, and 1/8 tsp. each allspice, cinnamon and cloves. The spices were what made this dish special. It brings back good memories!1 year ago, Friday, March 31, 2023

Chourico in SA is horribly expensive so I used a locally made Russian Sausage. All I can say is WOW it was Delicious.2 years ago, Saturday, August 13, 2022 -

Susan NevesI think the recipe sounds good...the only ingredient I'm questioning is the cinnamon, although 1/2 tsp. is very small considering the amount of beans.2 years ago, Friday, January 14, 2022reply
Susan, if you're not a fan please leave that out, the author simply recommends it but it's up to everyone's taste buds. to take away or add anything. :-)2 years ago, Friday, January 14, 2022

Justin BorbaI prefer pink beans to pintos. That suggestion was in a comment for this same recipe from an earlier time -- Maybe a year or two back. It definitely makes a difference.3 years ago, Wednesday, August 25, 2021
