BLACK BEAN SOUP
It seems just about every chef has their own version of this popular Mexican soup. My favourite has always been found in Pancho's Backyard in Cozumel, Mexico. it's an authentic, thick soup dominated by black beans with hints of peppers and sherry. When I set out to make my own I went in a different direction. This broth-style soup contains a generous amount of black beans, but they don't dominate so much as play alongside the blend of spices that will offer up equal amounts of sweet and spicy.

  • 1 Cooking Onion, thinly sliced or diced
  • 1 Carrot, peeled and chopped
  • 1 Celery Stalk, chopped
  • 1 Garlic Clove, minced
  • 2 cans Black Beans, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cups Vegetable Stock
  • 2 tsp Chipotle Puree
  • 1 tbsp Ancho Chili Powder
  • 1 tbsp Chili Powder
  • 1 tbsp Coriander
  • 1 tbsp Cumin
  • 1 tsp Cinnamon
Caramelize the onions by cooking them over low heat in equal parts olive oil and butter. Sprinkle with salt and cook for over half an hour, until the onions are brown. If you don't have the patience turn the heat up and sprinkle with sugar, cook for about five minutes until the onions begin to go translucent. Start heating the carrot, celery, and garlic in your choice of oil or butter. When they begin to soften add the onions and black beans, continue to cook for about a minute. Add vegetable stock and stir. Add in all remaining ingredients and allow to come to a boil. Turn the heat down to medium-low and simmer as long as you can - the flavours will intensify the longer they have. Serves 4-6
