Black Bean Soup

If you’re looking for a simple black bean soup recipe that also happens to be delicious, then this is it. It’s so easy to prepare, you’ll never need to buy canned soups again! Homemade is always fresher and better, plus you know exactly what’s going into your black bean soup.

Gran Luchito Cantina Beans are the perfect ingredient for this black bean recipe as not only will they save you precious time, but they are also delicious, and come in their natural cooking juices so perfect for adding more flavour.

All you need to do is to add some aromatics such as leeks, celery and garlic, then fry gently. Next, add Gran Luchito Chipotle Paste and the Cantina Beans with the dried oregano, coriander, and chicken stock. Finally, simply season with salt and pepper and leave it to simmer, melding together all of those wonderful flavours. After a bit of time simmering away, blend your bean soup into a silky smooth and creamy mixture. Then return it to the pan briefly just to make sure it’s the right consistency.

Our black bean soup recipe is creamy and slightly spicy, and we love serving it with crumbled Gran Luchito Lightly Salted Tortilla Chips, and a spoonful of creme fraiche that melts away into this silky soup. You can also add a little bit of our Gran Luchito Crunchy Salsa Macha on top for the perfect spicy touch.

Once the Mexican black bean soup is ready you can store it in a closed container in the fridge, ideally for no more than 3 days to guarantee its freshness. To eat, simply reheat it in a saucepan until nice and warm. If your easy bean soup is too thick you can add a bit of water or stock and then simmer.
