Black Bean Soup with Smoked Kielbasa Sausage image

It was a cool, rainy & dreary day today here in the Chicago area. So I decided to make Black Bean & Smoked Sausage Soup. I decided to make something that was healthier and full of fiber. I love Black Bean Soup, but had never made it for my husband, I wasn't sure if he would like it or not. But he ate more than I did, he loved...

Time 4h40m

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 lb dry black beans,washed & picked through for sand pebbles
4 stalk(s) celery, chopped
2 large onions, chopped
6 clove garlic, minced or chopped
4 large carrots, peeled & chopped
2-4 small sweet peppers, chopped
2 1/2 lb smoked kielbasa sausage ( or choice of your favorite)
2 tsp coarse black pepper
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt, or to taste
1 Tbsp cumin
1 Tbsp mesquite fijata spice mix (or liquid smoke if desired)
garnish- chopped onion, salsa, sweet peppers, shredded cheddar cheese, sour cream, or jalapeno peppers as desired
2 bay leaves (remove before serving)

Steps:

  • 1. Pick through dry beans, for rocks or sand pebbles & debris, then wash and add to a large pot, cover with water, cover with a tight fitting lid, and bring to a rolling boil, and boil for about 15 to 20 minutes, then lower heat to a simmer and continue to cook until beans are soft and tender, about 3 1/2 hours to 4 hours till liquid is thick and rich. Add more water as needed to keep beans covered.
  • 2. As beans begin to come to a boil, chop all of the vegetables, you can also add jalapeno peppers if desired, but we do not care for spicy food in our household, so I didn't use them. I had almost 8 cups of chopped vegetables when I was done.
  • 3. Add the chopped vegetables to the pot, and continue to cook over low heat.
  • 4. Add all of the spices, stir and continue cooking. Stirring occasionally to prevent beans from sticking.
  • 5. During the last half hour or so of cooking, cut up the smoked polish Kielbasa, and add it to the soup pot. Cover with a lid and continue to cook for about 20 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  • 6. Ladle and serve with your favorite corn Bread or Tortillas, and add your favorite garnishes. Enjoy.
