How to Make Cuban Black Bean Soup
- Add the remaining beans leaving them whole,bring it up to a boil and thicken with your choice of thickener.Add the chopped cilantro and incorporate into the soup.
Now you are ready to serve.Sour cream,fresh chopped sweet onion and cilantro with either a pico di gallo or a salsa is excellent on top as well which is how I served this.Blue corn tortilla chips are always good with this soup as well is queso fresca.(Mexican cheese)
