Peruvian Pickled Black Beans Recipes

Steps:

• In a large pot, soak beans overnight in 10 cups of water.
• Add 1 tablespoon oil, the onion, bell pepper, garlic cloves and bay leaf to beans, and bring to a boil. Lower heat to medium and simmer for 1 hour, checking regularly and skimming the foam that forms on top.
• Meanwhile, make the sofrito. Warm remaining 1/4 cup oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the half onion, 1 bell pepper and 3 garlic cloves and sauté for about 5 minutes until soft. Add 1 bay leaf, cumin, oregano, black pepper and salt, and cook for 2 minutes more.
• Add the sofrito to beans. Stir in sherry vinegar, wine and olives, and bring to a boil. Lower to a simmer and cook, covered, for about 1 to 1 1/2 hours, stirring frequently, until slightly thickened and cooked through. Remove both bay leaves, and adjust salt and pepper to taste. Remove from heat and add sugar. Serve as soup or a side dish, or over white rice.

Steps:

• Fill a bowl with water; stir in salt until dissolved. Add red onions; let soak for 10 minutes. Drain and pat dry.
• Mix onions, cucumbers, tomato, rice vinegar, lime juice, white wine vinegar, jalapeno pepper, cilantro, olive, and black pepper together in a large bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and let marinate at room temperature before serving, about 30 minutes.

Steps:

• In a large saucepan combine the black beans with lightly salted water to cover, bring the water to a boil, and simmer the beans for 1 hour or until they are tender but still hold their shape.
• While beans are cooking, in a large saucepan combine the onions with salted water to cover, bring the water to a boil, and drain the onions immediately. In a small bowl combine the onions wih the vinegar.
• In a large skillet heat the oil over moderate heat until it is hot but not smoking, add the ham, the annatto powder, the garlic, cumin and the chipotle and cook the mixture, stirring, for 3 minutes.
• Add the well drained black beans and the onions with the vinegar to the ham mixture, stirring, for 3 minutes. Tranfer it to a shallow serving dish. (A shallow dish allows the liquid to be absorbed by the beans.) Let the mixture cool, stirring occasionally.
• Garnish the bean mixture with the chopped hard boiled eggs, chopped black olives, coriander leaves and green onions. Serve at room temperature.
