If you don’t have an immersion blender you can just blend some of it in your regular blender and then add it back to the pot. cooked black beans, (or 2 540-mL cans black beans, drained and rinsed) 5 cups bean liquid (from cooking dried beans).You can serve it as is or you can blend it just a little bit with an immersion blender so that you have a thick soup with lots of delicious chunky bits! You can skip this step, but I thought it worked great for the texture of this soup.Add coconut sugar (or other sugar) for flavor balance and salt and pepper to taste and your soup is ready.Bring to the boil and then turn down the heat and let it simmer until the carrots and celery are softened. Add black beans, chopped tomatoes, tomato paste and vegetable stock.Sauté onions and garlic with oregano, cumin, smoked paprika, coriander powder and cayenne pepper and then add in chopped carrot and celery and mix in.This is a summary of the process to go along with the process photos.

You will find full instructions and measurements in the recipe card at the bottom of the post. We also serve with a dollop of homemade cashew cream, but this is entirely optional. You can use any sugar or omit it if you prefer. Coconut Sugar – this is just added for flavor balance.If you use a low sodium variety then you may need to season the soup with more salt, but just taste test at the end and add salt and pepper as needed. Vegetable Stock – you can use vegetable stock or broth.Chopped Tomatoes – these are also canned, and work wonderfully in this soup.If you don’t want to use canned black beans then you can use 4 and ½ cups of cooked black beans. Black Beans – canned black beans for the win! They’re easy to find and they take all the time consuming aspects out of the equation for this soup.And I don’t make tall claims.Īnd if you love all things beans then you’ll also love our fabulous vegan baked beans, vegan refried beans and vegan chili.
