Baked beans have a long history, originally made by Indigenous Americans. Modern recipes vary widely, including vegetarian and spicy options. Michelle Bottalico's recipe features vegetarian baked beans with chili powder, cayenne, and ancho chiles for warmth and smokiness. Homemade baked beans require various ingredients, including beans, tomatotes, sugars, and condiments. Vinegar is a crucial ingredient, adding acidity that enhances the complexity of flavors in the beans, allowing for a deeper and richer taste experience.
Homemade baked beans generally contain a sizable list of ingredients, from the beans themselves to aromatics, spices, tomatoes, sugars like brown sugar, molasses, or maple syrup, and condiments like mustard and Worcestershire sauce.
Michelle Bottalico has created a recipe for homemade vegetarian baked beans with a spicy kick. The twist is the combination of chili powder and ground cayenne for plenty of heat, along with dried ancho chiles, which add warmth and smokiness.
