I absolutley love Mexican food, especially the Yucatan regional foods. Anyone want to share there favorite recipes for Salsa's, Sauces and especially Refried Beans? I was recently told by someone that they put flour in their beans. Does anyone else do that? Is it traditional?

No its not traditional.....there is enough starch in the beans to thicken
them naturally.....Cochinita Pibil is a personal favorite of mine....

I use flour to thicken the beans broth, forming a kind of stew.
