Making Tortillas From Scratch Spanish  Maria's grand-daughter rolling her tortilla just before eating it. The frijoles are also locally grown, and once harvested and dried, we sort them and wash them before cooking. Although there are many throughout Mexico, four common types of frijoles are found here: white and small frijoles called flor de mayo, white and big frijoles called patole, red and small frijoles called flor ginda, and light red frijoles called frijole de mata. Most frijoles are prepared in large quantities with lots of cebolla (onion) and chile serrano.
