Black Turtle Beans
This small, shiny variety of the common bean has a dense, meaty texture which makes it popular in vegetarian dishes and as a soup ingredient. They make wonderful refried beans, black bean soup and can be incorporated into Mexican dishes like burritos and enchiladas. Black Turtle Beans are cholesterol-free and low in fat. They’re an excellent source of fiber and iron and a great choice for those following a vegetarian diet. It is also common to keep the boiled water of these beans (which acquires a black coloring) and consume it as a soup with other ingredients for seasoning (known as sopa negra, black soup), as a broth (caldo de frijol, bean broth) or to season or color other dishes.
