Black Bean 07

Black Bean Soup 1 lb (or so) black beans, soaked overnight and rinsed well 2 lg. onions, chopped 3 carrots, cut in halved slices 3 celery stalks, chopped 1-2 heaping tbsp chopped garlic 1-2 tsp cumin (seed or ground) 1 tsp ground coriander salt to taste cayenne pepper to taste
Simmer the black beans, garlic, and veggies in 2-3 quarts of water until reasonably tender. Add the spices to taste and simmer 10-15 minutes longer.
The veggies get a little dark-looking if added at the start, so alternatively you can simmer the black beans until tender, saute the chopped veggies in a little olive oil, and add them at the end with the spices.
Another possible addition is a little sliced smoked sausage -- I use turkey smoked sausage because it's lower in fat, but any would do.
Serve with cornbread or french bread. This soup freezes well, and is better the next day too.
