The pinto bean (/ˈpɪntoʊ/) is a variety of common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris). In Spanish they are called frijoles pintos, literally “painted bean” (compare pinto horse). It is the most popular bean by crop production in Northern Mexico and the Southwestern United States,[1][2] and is most often eaten whole (sometimes in broth), or mashed and then refried.
Either way, it is a common filling for burritos, tostadas, or tacos in Mexican cuisine,[3] also as a side or as part of an entrée served with a side tortilla or sopaipilla in New Mexican cuisine.[4]
In South America, it is known as the poroto frutilla, literally “strawberry bean”. In Portuguese, the Brazilian name is feijão carioca (literally “carioca bean”; contrary to popular belief, the beans were not named after Rio de Janeiro, but after a pig breed that has the same color as the legume),[5] which differs from the name in Portugal: feijão catarino.
