Ingredients

  • 2 cups dry black beans, soaked overnight

  • 1 quart cold water, or as needed

  • 1 onion, chopped

  • 1 green bell pepper, chopped

  • 5 cloves garlic, chopped

  • 2 bay leaves

  • 1 tablespoon salt

  • 1 tablespoon ground cumin

  • 1 tablespoon dried oregano

  • ½ cup white cooking wine

  • ¼ cup distilled white vinegar

  • ¼ cup olive oil

Directions

  1. In a medium stockpot, combine soaked beans (see Editor's Note), water, onion, green pepper, garlic, bay leaves, salt, cumin and oregano. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat; reduce heat to low. Simmer, covered, until beans are tender, about 1 hour. Stir occasionally and add water as necessary so that the beans don't dry out or scorch.

  2. When beans are tender, stir in wine, vinegar, and olive oil.

Editor's Note:

If you don't have time to soak the black beans overnight, use the quick-soak method: bring beans and water to a boil. Turn off heat and allow to stand for 1 hour before proceeding with recipe.
