KEMP'S VEGETARIAN BLACK BEANS - 6-QT PRESSURE COOKER



Kemp's Vegetarian Black Beans - 6-Qt Pressure Cooker image

Entered for safe-keeping, adapted from Gourmet Executive Food Editor Kemp Minifie in April 2007 Gourmet. Kemp Minifie claims that the vegetarian "holy trinity" of flavor is sherry, soy sauce and balsamic vinegar. Beans improve in flavor if cooked at least 8 hours ahead. Chill, uncovered until completely cooled, then chill covered up to 1 week, or freeze up to 3 months. Beans thicken a lot as they stand, so thin with water when reheating over moderately low heat. Because these beans are best cooled so they thicken as they stand, some people make a big pot on the stove and designate it for other recipes. So I am giving both the Pressure Cooker directions and the non-pressure directions. The Pressure Cooker takes 1/3 the time. The preparation time does not include chilling time; the cooking time is for the pressure cooker.

Time 50m

Yield 8-9 cups, 16-18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 lb dried black beans, picked over and rinsed but not soaked (about 2 1/3 cups)
1 medium onion, finely chopped (110g)
3 tablespoons olive oil
8 cups water
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup cream sherry or 1/4 cup medium-dry sherry
1 teaspoon salt
1 -2 tablespoon soy sauce
1 -2 tablespoon balsamic vinegar

Steps:

  • PRESSURE COOKER.
  • In a 6- to 8-quart pressure cooker, combine beans, onion, oil, water and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
  • Seal pressure cooker with lid and cook at high pressure, according to manufacturer's directions, until beans are tender, 30-45 minutes.
  • Remove from heat. Use quick release method favored by your manufacturer; Kemp says to put the pressure cooker in the sink (with lid still attached) and run cold water over the lid until pressure goes down completely. (Don't try the cold water method with an electric pressure cooker!)
  • Chill uncovered until completely cooled, then chill, covered, up to 1 week or freeze up to 3 months.
  • NON-PRESSURE COOKING METHOD.
  • In a 6- to 8-quart heavy pot, bring black beans, onion, oil, water and 1/2 teaspoon salt to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, until beans are tender, 1 1/2 to 2 hours (depending on age of beans).
  • Chill uncovered until completely cooled, then chill, covered, up to 1 week or freeze up to 3 months.
  • REHEATING.
  • When reheating the beans later, stir in Sherry, 1 teaspoon salt, then soy sauce and vinegar to taste (start with 1 tablespoon each). Thin with water if necessary. Simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes.

SAVORY BLACK BEANS - 4-QT. PRESSURE COOKER



Savory Black Beans - 4-Qt. Pressure Cooker image

Entered for safe-keeping, from Kuhn Rikon's "Quick Cuisine". K-R recommends at least a 4-quart pressure cooker for this recipe. For maximum flavor, use a Long Soak (8 hours or overnight) before cooking the beans AND pressure cook one day prior to serving; add the chopped tomato, lime juice and salt just before serving. (The long soak and the salt help to reduce gassiness.) (It is best to add acids after black beans have fully cooked.) This dish goes well with enchiladas. Or you can preheat an oven to 350 degrees F, transfer the beans to an ovenproof dish, and sprinkle with shredded Monterey Jack cheese; then bake for 15 minutes or until cheese melts.

Time 8h21m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 lb dried black beans, sorted and rinsed (1 cup)
3 cups cold water
1 teaspoon salt
2 bacon, slices chopped
1 medium onion, peeled and diced (110 g)
2 garlic cloves, peeled and minced
1/2-1 jalapeno pepper, sliced lengthwise and seeds removed and then finely chopped
1 3/4 cups water
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, minced
1 teaspoon ground oregano
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1 large tomatoes, chopped
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
salt, to taste

Steps:

  • Sort through dried black beans and remove broken or discolored beans. Rinse, then soak beans in water with salt for 8-10 hours or overnight, in a cool location.
  • Drain beans and rinse again. Allow to drain until Step 5.
  • In a 4-quart or larger pressure cooker, heat bacon over medium-high heat.
  • After bacon has released some oil, stir in onion, garlic and jalapeno pepper. Cook until onion softens.
  • Add 1 3/4 cups water and rinsed and drained beans.
  • Increase to high heat. Stir in cilantro, ground oregano and black pepper.
  • Secure lid and bring to high pressure over high heat. Adjust heat to stabilize pressure at 2nd red ring or high pressure. (If p.c. whistles, it is too hot.) From the moment high pressure was reached, cook for 10-12 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and allow to lose pressure naturally.
  • Cooked black beans taste the best the next day. If you can wait, please refrigerate and reheat when ready to serve.
  • When ready to serve, heat up black beans and stir in chopped tomato, lime juice and salt.

Tips:

  • Soak the black beans overnight or for at least 8 hours before cooking. This will help to reduce the cooking time and make the beans more digestible.
  • Use a 6-quart or larger pressure cooker for this recipe. A smaller pressure cooker may not be able to accommodate all of the ingredients.
  • Be sure to add enough water to the pressure cooker. The beans should be covered with at least 2 inches of water.
  • Cook the beans on high pressure for 20 minutes. Once the cooking time is complete, let the pressure cooker cool down naturally for 10 minutes before opening the lid.
  • Season the beans with your favorite spices and herbs. Some popular options include cumin, chili powder, garlic powder, and onion powder.
  • Serve the beans immediately or store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.

Conclusion:

This vegetarian black bean recipe is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy this versatile legume. The beans are cooked in a flavorful broth with a variety of vegetables and spices, making them a perfect addition to tacos, burritos, salads, and soups. Whether you're a vegetarian or simply looking for a meatless meal, this recipe is sure to please.
