Hello Dears,

It's your favorite granny, here to share some of the easiest and quickest ways to prepare foods you enjoy and to discover new ways to enjoy them too!

"Did you know that one humble bean holds the secret to rich, flavorful dishes across multiple cultures? Oloyin beans, also known as honey beans, are a West African favorite, loved for their natural sweetness, creamy texture, and incredible versatility. Whether it’s Nigeria’s ewa riro, Caribbean bean stews, or Latin American delicacies, these protein-packed gems bring comfort and culture to every plate. But what makes them so special—and how can you use them in your own kitchen? "

From West African kitchens to the bustling streets of Brazil, the hearty warmth of oloyin beans finds its way into so many traditions. 

Across over 16 different cultures, these naturally sweet beans have been a staple—sometimes as the star of the dish, other times as a clever substitute for other legumes. 

Whether slow-cooked into a rich Nigerian ewa aganyin (or ewa riro), blended into Caribbean fritters, or replacing black-eyed peas in a soulful Southern dish, oloyin beans prove that great food knows no borders.
