I have one if you would like it.........

1 cup dried black beans, soaked overnight and drained.........or skip this part and cook for a long time....
1 cup dried kidney beans......same
2 bay leaves
3 table spoons coarse salt
2 tablespoon olive or veggie oil
3 carrots chopped
1 onion chopped
1 celery stalk chopped
1 garlic clove minced
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1/4-1/2 teaspoon cayenne
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
salt and pepper
1/3 cup red wine
1 quart beef stock and 1 cup water

Put the black and kined beans in two separete pots. Add a bay leaf to each and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil, then cover and simmer for 30 mins. Increase time if beans are cooked from dries

Add 3 tablespoons coarse salt to each pot and continue simmerings until the beans are tender, about 30 mins. Drain and lett cool slightly. Discard bay leaves.

Heat the oil in a large pan...add the carrots, onion, celery, and garlic and cook over low heat, stirring, until softened, 8-10 mins.
Stir in the cumin, cayenne, oregano, and salt to taste.
Add the wine, stock, and water and stir to mix. Add the beans,. Bring to a boil, reduce the heat, then cover and simmer about 20 minutes, stiring occasionally.
Transfer half of the soup, including most of the solids, to a food processor or blender. Process until smooth.
Return to the pans and stir to combine well.
Reheat the soup if necessary and taste for seasoning. Serve hot, garnished with sour cream,and chopped fresh cilantro.

This taste yummy.........


alot of messing tho.....

I always put a bit of balsamic vinegar in at the end just before serving and add fresh diced onion on top with a bit hot sauce. Learned this from a cuban family.

I was just surfing the net, reading stuff about Bob Denver (RIP, Gilligan  :\\\'( ) and came across The Professor's web site. Yes, Russell Johnson, Gilligan's Island's own professor has his own web site -- complete with recipes! He just happens to have a recipe for black bean soup, so I thought I'd share. No idea if it's any good.

Black Bean Soup
compliments of the Johnsons' good friend B.L. Meyers, a master chef who
created this recipe to be, not only nutritious and delicious, but quick and easy!

1/2 yellow onion, finely chopped
3 cloves Garlic, finely chopped
1 package ground Turkey or Beef (3/4 - 1 lb.)
1 Can black beans, undrained
1 Can corn niblets, drained
1 Can chicken broth
1/2 Cup orzo or other pasta
1 container Resers Original Salsa
(or container of good salsa - not in a can)

Saute onion and garlic in 2-3 Tbsp. olive oil for 3 minutes. Add turkey or beef and cook through. Add beans, corn, broth and salsa. Cook 30 minutes, covered. Add pasta and cook until tender, approximately 10 minutes.
