Black Bean Recipe. People are always judged by their Black Beans. People will say he/she makes some great beans. This is your classic recipe for Cuban Black Beans. You have the black beans that are still a bit firm in that silky juice that is full of flavor. These can easily be eaten on their own.

Ingredients


Beans
black beans (dry) 1 lb Rinsed and picked over.
bell pepper 1 Seeded and stem removed cut into quarters.
bay leaf 1
Sofrito
olive oil 2/3 cup
onion 1 diced
garlic clove 4 diced
bell pepper 1 Seeded and stem removed. Diced.
serrano chile 1 Seeded and stem removed. Diced.
cumin 2 tsps
cider vinegar 2 Tbsps
salt 1 1/2 tsps to taste
black pepper 1/4 tsp to taste


Directions

  1. Place the black beans in a glass bowl and cover with water. The water level should be 2 inches above the beans. Allow to soak overnight.
  2. Place the beans and the water it was soaking in into a saucepan and add water if needed. The water should again be 2 inches above the beans.
  3. Add the bell pepper and the bay leaf and bring to a boil over high heat.
  4. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook uncovered for 2 hours. Add more water if needed to just barely cover the beans.
  5. Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil, onion, garlic cloves, and bell pepper. Sauté until the onions are translucent.
  6. Add the diced serrano chile, cumin, and vinegar. Mix well.
  7. Add the sofrito to the beans and mix well. Cook for an additional 30 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste and serve.
