Yield Makes 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 20

For beans:
1 pound dried black beans (about 2 1/4 cups)
8 cups water
1 Turkish or 1/2 California bay leaf
For short ribs:
1 1/4 ounces dried ancho chiles (3 to 4 medium)
2 cups boiling-hot water
1 medium onion, chopped
3 garlic cloves, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons finely chopped canned chipotles in adobo plus 1 tablespoon adobo sauce
2 tablespoons tomato paste
2 tablespoons molasses (not robust or blackstrap)
1 teaspoon cumin seeds
3 whole cloves
2 1/3 cups cold water, divided
5 pounds beef short ribs
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/4 pound sliced bacon, chopped
1 (3-inch) cinnamon stick
Accompaniments: chopped white or red onion; chopped cilantro

Steps:

  • Quick-soak beans:
  • Put beans in a 4-to 5-quart heavy pot with enough water to cover by 2 inches.
  • Bring to a boil and boil 2 minutes, then remove from heat and let stand, covered, 1 hour.
  • Make chile purée:
  • Wipe anchos clean, then stem and seed. Discard ribs and tear anchos into pieces.
  • Soak anchos in boiling-hot water until softened, about 20 minutes. Transfer anchos to a blender, reserving soaking liquid.
  • Purée anchos with onion, garlic, chipotles with sauce, tomato paste, molasses, cumin, cloves, 1/3 cup water, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  • Braise short ribs:
  • Pat ribs dry and season with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper (total). Heat oil in a wide 6-to 8-quart heavy pot over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Brown ribs in batches, about 6 minutes per batch. Transfer as browned to a platter. Discard fat from pot.
  • Preheat oven to 350°F with rack in middle.
  • Cook bacon in pot over medium heat until browned, then transfer with a slotted spoon to platter.
  • Stir chile purée into fat in pot (it may spatter). Cook, stirring frequently, 6 minutes. Stir in reserved chile-soaking liquid, remaining 2 cups water, and cinnamon stick and bring to a boil. Return ribs and bacon to pot and braise, covered, in oven until ribs are very tender, 3 to 3 1/4 hours. Skim fat from sauce.
  • Cook beans while ribs braise:
  • Drain beans, then return to pot and add fresh water (8 cups), bay leaf, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, until beans are just tender, 1 1/4 to 2 hours (depending on age of beans). Drain just before serving.
  • Serve short ribs with beans.

These scrumptious and fragrant vegan black beans will complement any fiesta! Muy delicioso! If you have time, soak the dried beans overnight in plenty of water. The beans will expand, so cover them with twice the amount of water to soak.

SPICED BLACK BEANS



Spiced Black Beans image

Really good and spicy bean dish that goes well with grilled beef and pork. Add a few splashes of hot sauce towards the end of cooking time.( Without the bacon, this is very good as a vegetarian dish; OR, an ounce or two of chorizo sausage can be used instead of bacon)
