Ingredients
- ½ cup of rich avocado oil
- 2 large brown onions, roughly chopped
- 5 pounds of carefully selected dried black beans, ready to be washed
- Generous amount of water to cover the beans
- A jar of tomato paste (24 ounces) from the renowned Tukas® brand
- Freshly peeled and sliced garlic from a whole head
- ¼ cup of flavorful dried onion
- 4 tablespoons of pungent mustard seeds
- 5 dried pasilla chile pods for a hint of spice
- Fragrant cinnamon sticks (5 in total)
- 2 tablespoons of aromatic ground cardamom
- 5 teaspoons of earthy cumin seeds
- 1 tablespoon of dried Mexican oregano for an authentic touch
- 1 tablespoon of sweet brown sugar to balance flavors
- 1 tablespoon of dried epazote, to your liking
- Salt added to taste, for perfect seasoning.
Step 1
Begin by heating oil in a spacious pot on medium-high heat, infusing the air with the tantalizing aroma. As the onions sizzle and turn translucent over a span of about 5 minutes, the kitchen fills with a welcoming warmth.
Step 2
Carefully introduce the beans into the mix, pouring water generously to envelop them by 3 to 4 inches, ensuring a hearty concoction. A symphony of flavors awaits as you sprinkle in tomato paste, minced garlic, a medley of spices such as mustard seeds, chile pods, cinnamon sticks, cardamom, cumin seeds, fragrant oregano, and a hint of brown sugar for balance. Let the essence of epazote dance in the pot, bringing a touch of authenticity to the dish.
Step 3
Watch with anticipation as the mixture reaches a bubbling crescendo, each ingredient harmonizing with the next. Cover the pot and lower the heat, allowing the flavors to meld and the beans to tenderize over the next 3 1/2 to 4 hours. Stir occasionally, indulging in the rich scents that waft through the kitchen.
Step 4
Unveil the simmering pot, increasing the heat to a vigorous high. As the liquid begins to reduce, stir diligently from the base, ensuring the beans do not stick or scorch. With each gentle press of the spoon, the beans break down slightly, thickening the sauce to a luscious consistency. This final step, lasting about 30 minutes, is where the magic truly unfolds.
Step 5
Before serving, sprinkle a pinch of salt to season the dish to perfection. Each spoonful promises a burst of flavor, a testament to the artistry of cooking.
Extra Tips & Suggestions
- 1. Utilize glass containers with secure lids to store any leftovers, making sure they are airtight to preserve freshness and flavor.
- 2. Consider investing in reusable silicone storage bags, which are not only eco-friendly but can also be easily washed and reused for future meal prepping.
