Recipe Review

30th July 2011

Jayme from Vancouver, BC

Mmm, perfectly flavoured black bean soup. My favourite part was the rum. I'm pretty sure I've never given anything with rum in it less than five stars.

This was a little too thin for my taste, I like my bean soups on the thick side, but that's personal preference and easily fixed next time I make this soup. I topped this with a little basil-cashew sour cream I made from the Artful Vegan, which made this soup that much more amazing!

Rum in black bean soup sounds interesting! I have this book but haven't done much with it. It seems so big and overwhelming to me. Maybe I'll let you find all the good stuff in it for me. :-)

I'm curious about the rum now too! It's not something I've ever cooked with.

I love rum so hard! Bittman said to you either sheerry or rum, so I obviously picked rum. Now I'm thinking I might never use sherry again! It's not a very rummy tasting soup or anything though. The rum is just to deglaze the pan basically.

I do not always like the flavor that sherry imparts - so I'm also intrigued by cooking with rum. This is an idea I'm going to store away, and hope to be able to retrieve when black bean soup weather returns in a few months.
