Ingredients

1 (16-ounce) package dried black beans

3 quarts water

3 chicken bouillon cubes

1/2 small onion

1/4 small green bell pepper

6 garlic cloves, minced

2 tablespoons olive oil

1 teaspoon dried oregano

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon pepper

Garnish: minced onion

Directions

Wash beans, and remove any foreign particles and debris.

Soak beans in water to cover in a 6-quart stockpot 8 hours. Rinse and drain beans.

Bring beans, 3 quarts water, and bouillon to a boil. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer 3 hours. Do not drain.

Process 1/2 small onion and bell pepper in a blender or food processor until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides.

Sauté garlic in hot oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat 1 minute. Add onion mixture, and cook, stirring constantly, 4 minutes.

Stir onion-and-garlic mixture into beans. Add oregano and next 4 ingredients. Simmer, uncovered, 1 1/2 to 2 hours or until beans are tender and soup is thick. Garnish, if desired.
