Black Bean Soup
Ingredients:
- 1 lb. dried black beans, picked over, soaked overnight in water to cover by several inches, then drained
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, chopped
- 2 medium onions, chopped
- 1 carrot, chopped
- 1 stalk celery, chopped
- ½ red or yellow pepper, chopped
- 4 garlic cloves, peeled and finely minced
- ½ fresh jalapeño, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons ground cumin
- 1 ½ teaspoons oregano
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 8 cups chicken or vegetable stock, more if needed
- ½ cup chopped cilantro
- 1 tablespoon fresh lime juice, more to taste
Directions
- Heat olive oil in large pot on medium low. Add vegetables (next 6 ingredients) and saute until tender, about 6-8 minutes.
- Stir in cumin, oregano and salt. Add stock and drained beans and simmer, partially covered, for 2 to 2 ½ hours. Add more stock or water as needed, if soup is too thick.
- If desired, use an immersion blender to purée soup. Don’t over do it; the soup should still have plenty of texture.
- Stir in chopped cilantro and lime juice and serve.
