1 (15 ounce) can whole kernel corn

SLOW-COOKER BLACK BEAN SOUP



Slow-Cooker Black Bean Soup image

Start your slow cooker in the morning and by dinnertime, you'll have deeply spiced black beans that just need a quick blend to become a velvety and vegan black bean soup. While not essential, a smidgen of baking soda helps the beans soften so they end up almost fudgy. Blending some of the beans with their liquid gives the soup body; for a very smooth soup, purée the whole mixture. A little vinegar and a flourish of toppings keep it from being one-note. Leftovers will thicken overnight, so thin as needed with water or turn them into refried beans.

Time 10h

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound dried black beans (not soaked)
1 yellow onion, peeled, trimmed and quartered
5 garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1 chipotle chile in adobo plus 1 tablespoon adobo sauce
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 dried bay leaves and/or 1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon baking soda (optional)
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar
Any combination of sour cream, Greek yogurt, corn chips, pickled red onion, cilantro, lime wedges or poached eggs, for toppings

Steps:

  • In a 5- to 8-quart slow cooker, combine the beans, onion, garlic, chipotle chile and sauce, cumin, bay leaves and/or oregano, and baking soda, if using. Add 6 cups of water and 1 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Cover and cook on low until the beans are tender, 8 to 10 hours. Taste more than one bean to ensure they're all cooked through; they should also flatten without much effort when pressed between your fingers.
  • Remove and compost the bay leaves. Transfer the onion, garlic and chipotle chile to a blender or food processor, along with about 2 cups of the beans and broth. (You can purée more or less of the soup, depending on desired consistency.) Blend until smooth. Pour puréed soup back into the slow cooker, stir in the vinegar, then season to taste with salt. Eat with desired toppings.

SPICY BEAN SOUP (SLOW COOKER)



Spicy Bean Soup (Slow Cooker) image

From Better Homes and Gardens Biggest Book of Slow Cooker Recipes. I love this soup a lot. Sometimes I serve it with garlic bread. I substitute the pepper jack cheese for sharp cheddar, and instead of putting the cheese in the big pot I put it into the separate bowls. I forgot to add that i don't use the garbanzo beans!

Tips:

  • Use dried black beans for the best flavor and texture. If you use canned beans, rinse them well before using.
  • Soak the beans overnight before cooking. This will help to reduce cooking time and make the beans more digestible.
  • Add a ham bone or smoked sausage to the soup for extra flavor. If you don't have either of those on hand, you can add a teaspoon of smoked paprika instead.
  • Use a variety of vegetables in your soup. This will add flavor, color, and texture. Some good options include onions, garlic, celery, carrots, bell peppers, and tomatoes.
  • Season the soup to taste. Black bean soup should be slightly spicy, so don't be afraid to add a few tablespoons of chili powder or cayenne pepper.
  • Serve the soup with a dollop of sour cream or yogurt, and a sprinkling of chopped cilantro.
