HEARTY & THICK BLACK BEAN SOUP
These black beans are delicious. I have made these for years, everyone likes them. I have passed along the recipe to lots of people. I got the recipe out of a PG&E pamphlet (years ago). The recipe is from MUSTARD'S GRILL' in St. Helena CA, the Napa Valley. Prep time does not include soaking the beans.

Steps:
- Soak beans overnight in the water OR bring to boil then let stand for 1 hour; drain.
- Cook bacon in heavy, large pot over medium heat until golden brown and crisp, stirring frequently, about 5 minutes.
- Mix in garlic, celery, carrot, onion, jalapeño and bay leaf.
- Cook until vegetables are tender, stirring occasionally, about 10 minutes.
- Add chili powder, cumin, cayenne and pepper.
- Stir until aromatic, about 1 minute.
- Add beans and broth.
- Cook at a slow boil until beans are tender and most of the liquid is absorbed, stirring occasionally, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours.
- I have used more broth to make it a soup.
- Season with salt.
- Mustard's serves these beans topped with chopped red onions, a dollop of sour cream and chopped chives.
