Black beans are a familiar, nutritious ingredient and can be processed into many healthy dishes. Among them, black bean soup is a simple, easy-to-cook dish and suitable for daily meals.
To cook black bean soup, first prepare about 300 grams of black beans, minced ginger, salt, sesame oil and enough water. Black beans should be soaked in water for about 5-6 hours to soften the beans. After soaking, take out the beans, wash them and drain.
Next, add a little oil to the pot and heat it up, then add minced ginger and sauté until fragrant. When the ginger is fragrant, add black beans to the pot, add water to submerge the beans and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cook for about 45 minutes until the beans are soft.
Finally, season with a little salt and sesame oil to enhance the flavor. The soup has a fragrant taste, soft beans and rich broth. If you prefer a richer flavor, you can add anise or laurels, but many people still prefer to retain the original flavor of beans.
In addition, black bean soup with pork ribs is also a nutritious dish, favored by many families.
Ingredients include 100 grams of black beans, 450 grams of pork ribs, 45 grams of dried longan, 6-8 red apples, ginger, salt and chicken broth (depending on taste).
Black beans need to be soaked in cold water for about 5-8 hours to soften, then washed. Wash pork ribs, put them in a pot of boiling water with a few slices of ginger and blanch for about 10 minutes to remove dirty foam, then take them out and wash again.
Then, put pork ribs, black beans, dried longan and red apples in a pot (preferably earthenware pot), add just enough water and simmer over medium heat for about 2 hours. When the ingredients are soft and the broth has a natural sweetness, season with salt and a little chicken broth, continue to cook for about 10 minutes and then turn off the heat.
Black bean soup stewed with pork ribs has a sweet, fragrant and nutritious taste, suitable for use when needing to nourish health or on cool weather days.
