Categories Soup/Stew Bean Tomato Low Fat Fall Cilantro Bon Appétit

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

1 1/2 cups dried black beans
2 1/2 teaspoons ground cumin
7 cups (or more) Roasted Vegetable Broth
2 cups reserved cooked vegetables from Roasted Vegetable Broth
2 teaspoons minced garlic
Cilantro-Tomato Salsa

Steps:

Place beans in large bowl. Pour enough cold water over beans to cover by 3 inches. Let soak overnight. Drain beans.
Stir cumin in heavy large pot over medium heat until fragrant, about 20 seconds. Add 7 cups broth and beans. Cover and simmer until beans are almost tender, about 1 hour.
Purée reserved cooked vegetables in processor until smooth. Stir into soup. Add garlic. Cover and simmer until beans are tender, about 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Chill. Rewarm over medium heat and thin with more broth, if desired.)
Top soup with salsa and serve.

Tips:

Choose ripe, flavorful tomatoes: The quality of your tomatoes will greatly impact the taste of your salsa. Look for ripe, juicy tomatoes that are free of blemishes.
Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like cilantro, basil, and oregano add a burst of flavor to salsa. If you don't have fresh herbs on hand, you can use dried herbs, but they won't be as flavorful.
Don't over-process the salsa: Salsa is best when it has a chunky texture. If you over-process it, it will become too smooth and lose its freshness.
Chill the salsa before serving: Chilled salsa is more refreshing and flavorful. You can chill it for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
Serve salsa with your favorite Mexican dishes: Salsa is a versatile condiment that can be served with a variety of Mexican dishes, such as tacos, burritos, enchiladas, and nachos.
