Carla Makes Black Bean Soup with ALL the Toppings

Unlike many other bean recipes I've developed in the past, there is no need to soak the black beans; the fact that they take a while to go from dried to creamy is part of their impact. The flavor the beans contribute as they simmer is a major element of the soup, and while they cook, you’ll have time to pull together the “topper whoppers”—chips, avocado, sour cream, and other finishers.  For the full recipe, check out my book That Sounds So Good, or head to Food Processing on Substack: https://carlalallimusic.substack.com/... 0:54 Time Management is Key 2:20 Chile Plumping and Hydrating 4:12 Soffritto and Spices 7:40 Carla Says Fat a Bunch of Times 10:01 Commence Existential Flavor Journey 13:12 Topper Whoppers! 13:54 Good Soup Follow me on Instagram   / lallimusic   ...and Tiktok https://www.tiktok.com/clallimusic/ More about me, including info on my books, is here: https://www.carlalallimusic.com Producer: Zoie Omega   / x_omegadeth_x   Director of Photography: Tim Racca https://vimeo.com/348179757 Food Stylist: Cybelle Tondu https://www.instagram.com/cyborrrrg/?...
