Tomato Black Bean Soup
Sopa Tarasca
Makes 6 servings
This soup, named after the Tarascos people of Michoacán, is a soulful blend of black beans, onions, garlic, tomatoes, and chiles. Like many of the best Mexican soups, it’s comfort food that can easily be upgraded with a variety of garnishes. If you want to kick up the heat, add a small handful of chiles de árbol to the mix.

Soup:
3 Roma tomatoes, coarsely chopped
1 ancho chile, stemmed and seeded
1 1/2 cups water
3 cloves garlic
1/2 medium white onion, coarsely chopped
1 to 2 tablespoons corn oil
4 cups cooked black beans, puréed
2 1/2 cups vegetable broth
1 teaspoon salt
Garnishes:
Fried ancho chile strips
Tortilla chips or strips
Chopped ripe Hass avocado
Vegan sour cream, whipped vigorously
In a 3-quart pot, combine the tomatoes, ancho, and water and simmer over medium heat for about 10 minutes. Transfer the tomatoes, ancho, and water to a blender and wipe out the pot. Add the garlic and onion the blender and purée until smooth. (Press the purée through a strainer if you want it completely smooth.)
Add the oil to the pot and heat it over medium-high heat. Add the purée and cook for about 5 minutes, slowly stirring. Reduce the heat to medium and add the puréed beans, vegetable broth, and salt. Simmer the soup for 10 minutes. Add liquid if necessary to ensure the soup is creamy but not incredibly thick. Serve with any or all of the garnishes.
