Black Bean and Tomato Soup image

This is a modified version of a recipe that I found on another site. Either canned or cooked black beans can be used. This soup freezes well and I usually double or triple the recipe to have enough to freeze for later.

TOMATO AND WHITE BEAN SOUP WITH LOTS OF GARLIC



Tomato and White Bean Soup With Lots of Garlic image

This recipe makes the most out of just a handful of pantry ingredients, like canned white beans, a can of tomatoes and a full head of garlic. The soup owes its surprisingly rich and complex flavor to how the garlic is cooked: By smashing the cloves, you end up with different sizes and pieces of garlic. These cook irregularly, which means you'll taste the full range of garlic's flavors, from sweet and nutty to almost a little spicy. Simmer the lightly browned garlic with white beans and tomatoes, then blend, and you have a creamy, cozy soup that's endlessly adaptable: Add aromatics to the simmering pot, or make it spicy with harissa, smoked paprika or chipotle. Top with pesto, croutons, cheese, cooked grains, greens or a fried egg.

Categories     dinner, weekday, soups and stews, appetizer, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

10 garlic cloves
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 (14-ounce) cans white beans, such as cannellini or great Northern, including their liquid
1 (28-ounce) can crushed tomatoes

TOMATO AND BEAN SOUP

2 tablespoons fresh parsley

MEXICAN TOMATO-BEAN SOUP WITH CORN DUMPLINGS



Mexican Tomato-Bean Soup With Corn Dumplings image

I found this recipe in a cooking light magazine and thought it tasted great and was very simple to make. The only part that didn't work so well was getting my dumplings to cook as there wasn't a whole lot of liquid left after adding the beans and tomatoes. So, I am going to try adding just a little more vegetable broth or water next time so that my dumplings cook up better. I just really like the taste of this soup.

SUMMER BEAN SOUP WITH TOMATO BROWN BUTTER



Summer Bean Soup With Tomato Brown Butter image

I set out to create my own version of baked beans. This variation is deeply savory, with anchovies, bacon, and a brown butter-tomato sauce anchoring the flavor.

Provided by Cortney Burns

Categories     Summer     Soup/Stew     Bean     Green Bean     Tomato

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 29

Bean Soup:
8 oz. (230 g) dried beans, such as flageolet or navy, or fresh shelling beans
2 in. square dried kombu
2 large tomatoes
2 celery ribs
1 carrot
1 leek, white and light green parts only
6 shallots, skins intact
6 garlic cloves, minced
4 oil-packed anchovy fillets
6 Tbsp. (90 ml) extra-virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. maple syrup
1 ½ Tbsp. kosher salt
1 Tbsp. red pepper flakes
1 tsp. whole-grain mustard
Baked Beans:
8 oz. (230 g) bacon
8 oz. (230 g) Romano beans or green beans, chopped into 1 in. pieces
2 shallots, thinly sliced
1 tsp. red pepper flakes
Zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 garlic clove, grated
Green Bean Salad:
12 pickled green beans (see Basic Wet Salt Method, below)
9 cherry tomatoes, quartered
2 tsp. extra-virgin olive oil
1 tsp. sherry vinegar
Tomato Brown Butter
Crumbled feta, parsley leaves, and marjoram leaves for garnish

Steps:

  • To make the soup:
  • Combine the dried beans and kombu in a large container and cover with plenty of water to soak for at least 4 hours or overnight; skip this step if using fresh beans.
  • Drain the beans and kombu and add them to a large pot with enough water to cover by about 1 in. (if using fresh beans, add the kombu now). Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; meanwhile, halve the tomatoes and cut the celery, carrot, and leek into about 3 in. pieces. As soon as the water boils, decrease the heat to medium-low and add the vegetables to the pot, along with the whole shallots and minced garlic. Continue to cook at a gentle simmer until the beans are very creamy, 60 to 90 minutes for dried beans and about half that for fresh.
  • Remove the pot from the heat and use a slotted spoon to reserve the tomatoes; remove and discard the other vegetables.
  • Set up a sieve over a heat proof container and strain the beans (there should be about 3 cups or 480 g), reserving all the cooking liquid.
  • In a blender, combine 1 cup (160 g) of the cooked beans with 2 cups (480 ml) of the cooking liquid, plus the tomatoes, anchovies, oil, maple syrup, salt, red pepper flakes, and mustard. Purée until extremely smooth, pour into a large bowl, and fold in the reserved cooked beans by hand. At this point, you can serve it right away or transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate for up to 3 days, gently rewarming over medium-low heat when you're ready to serve.
  • To make the baked beans:
  • While the bean soup is cooking, preheat the oven to 325°F. Cut the bacon into ¼ in. lardons; reserve 3 whole beans for garnish and cut the rest into 2 to 3 in. pieces.
  • In a medium saucepan or Dutch oven, spread the bacon in an even layer and cook over medium-low heat until it starts to turn golden and crisp, about 10 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to remove the pieces but leave the fat behind.
  • Increase the heat slightly, and sauté the shallots until translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in the chopped beans, bacon, and red pepper flakes. Cover with a lid or a tight layer of foil and bake until the beans are very soft, 60 to 90 minutes. Stir in the lemon zest, juice, and garlic as soon as the beans come out of the oven and cover again; the residual steam will cook the garlic.
  • To make the salad:
  • Thinly slice the pickled green beans on the bias. Combine with the cherry tomatoes, oil, and vinegar.
  • To serve, ladle the bean soup into bowls with a big spoonful of the baked beans on top. Garnish with the pickled green bean mix, a swirl of tomato brown butter, crumbled feta, and torn fresh herbs. Leftovers can all be refrigerated in separate airtight containers, though the green bean salad is best on the day it's made, when the beans are most crisp and the tomatoes are fresh.
  • Basic wet salt method:
  • This works for any amount of dense vegetables or dense, underripe fruit, either whole or cut up, such as carrots, turnips, beets, winter squash, onions, green beans, Brussels sprouts, green tomatoes, small apples, underripe peaches, and whole baby cabbages. Peel off any tough skins, such as on beets, winter squash, and onions, and trim the tops. Leave the vegetables whole or cut them into the desired finished shape. Place the vegetables in a nonreactive container and pour water to completely submerge them; as you do so, keep track of how much water you're adding since the amount of water will dictate the amount of salt (generally 3.5 percent salt by weight of the water for most vegetables, although cucumbers can handle 4 to 5 percent and the increased salt assists with keeping their texture crispy). With a long wooden spoon, stir kosher salt into the brine (or add the salt, cap the jar, and give it a hearty shake) until the salt is dissolved. Place a weight on top of the vegetables to keep them submerged in the brine. Seal the container, using a lid with an airlock if you have one. If you don't have an airlock, you'll just need to open the container every few days or so to release carbon dioxide buildup and check for mold. Place the container in a clean, low-light area with an ambient temperature of 60°F to 68°F until the pickles taste sour, about 3 weeks. Refrigerate indefinitely.
