Automatically translated from Spanish
A famous Dominican sweet dish served during Holy Week, made from pureed beans, milk, sugar, spices, raisins, sweet potatoes, and small crackers (traditionally ones with a cross in the middle). It is jokingly described as food terrorism because when they ferment in your stomach, they cause farts that no amount of open windows or high speed fans can handle. (A staple Lenten tradition, these are usually made in large batches to share with friends and neighbors).
Man, pass me more of those cross crackers for these habichuelas con dulce, they are hot.
