     Title: Slow-Cooker Black Bean Soup
Categories: Beans, Vegetables, Chilies, Herbs
     Yield: 5 servings

     1 lb Dried black beans (not
          - soaked)
     1    Yellow onion; peeled,
          - trimmed, quartered
     5 cl Garlic; smashed; peeled
     1    Chipotle chile in adobo
          +=PLUS=+
     1 tb Adobo sauce
     2 ts Ground cumin
     2    Dried bay leaves
     1 ts Dried oregano
   1/4 ts Baking soda (opt)
          Salt
     1 ts Apple cider vinegar

MMMMM-----------------TOPPINGS (ANY COMBINATION----------------------
          Sour cream
          Greek yogurt
          Corn chips
          Pickled red onion
          Cilantro
          Lime wedges
          Poached eggs

 In a 5 to 8 quart slow cooker, combine the beans, onion,
 garlic, chipotle chile and sauce, cumin, bay leaves
 and/or oregano, and baking soda, if using. Add 6 cups of
 water and 1 teaspoon salt and stir to combine. Cover and
 cook on low until the beans are tender, 8 to 10 hours.
 Taste more than one bean to ensure they’re all cooked
 through; they should also flatten without much effort
 when pressed between your fingers.

 Remove and compost the bay leaves. Transfer the onion,
 garlic and chipotle chile to a blender or food
 processor, along with about 2 cups of the beans and
 broth. (You can puree more or less of the soup,
 depending on desired consistency.) Blend until smooth.
 Pour puréed soup back into the slow cooker, stir in the
 vinegar, then season to taste with salt. Eat with
 desired toppings.
