This is an excellent dish alone or as a side dish for both hot and cold entrees. Best if allowed to stand at least an hour in order to marinate the flavors. Can even be made a day or two ahead, as the flavors get even better.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 6

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. This will ensure that your salsa has the best possible flavor. Roma tomatoes are a good choice, as they are meaty and have fewer seeds.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different types of beans. Black beans are a classic choice, but you can also use pinto beans, kidney beans, or any other type of bean that you like.
  • Add some chopped onion and cilantro for extra flavor. These ingredients will brighten up the salsa and give it a more complex flavor profile.
  • Season the salsa to taste with salt, pepper, and lime juice. You want the salsa to be flavorful, but not too salty or sour.
  • Chill the salsa for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop.

Conclusion:

Tomato black bean salsa is a delicious and versatile dish that can be used as a dip, condiment, or topping. It's perfect for parties, picnics, and potlucks.
