This was adapted from a recipe on kitchenmusingstoday.com to create my "Beans" for Black Beans and Brown Rice. The original recipe made a killer layered party dip, but this is only for the basic beans. After pressure cooking, the mixture is very soupy, ready to turn into a gourmet black bean soup. I elected to reduce the liquid until the bean mixture was fairly thick. It is astounding to me how great these beans taste, as simple as they are. You could use 2 jalapenos if you want pronounced zip, or add the seeds to the beans; this version is relatively mild.
