TEX-MEX BLACK BEANS & SAFFRON RICE
After tasting this at a neighbor's Super Bowl party one year, I quickly scribbled down the recipe. This is a fairly simple dish to throw together and is a great accompaniment to Tex-Mex style dishes, although this isn't pretending to be any sort of authentic dish from any one particular region. I have made it many times over the years and this is a great dish for a potluck. Mahatma saffron rice comes in shiny yellow foil tubes in the rice section of your grocery store. I usually follow the microwave instructions for preparing the rice. I serve this as a side dish, but I think a Vegetarian who eats dairy would be able to enjoy this as a meal as well.

Steps:
- Prepare the saffron rice according to the package directions,using the amount of oil/butter and water as indicated on the package (I usually use olive oil).
- While the rice is cooking, rinse& drain the black beans in a mesh strainer to remove all the sludgey canning liquid and dump them into a small saucepan.
- Pour the entire contents of the diced tomatoes w/chili peppers,liquid and all,into the same pan with the beans and stir to combine.
- Cover the saucepan with lid,turn on the heat to low, and let bean mixture heat while the rice cooks, stirring occasionally- it should be ready when the rice is done.
- When the rice is fully cooked, pour it into a deep, medium sized casserole dish.
- Pour bean mixture into the center of the rice, leaving a border of the yellow rice peeking out arounds the sides.
- Place the sour cream in the center of the bean mixture in a dollop as a garnish (you can use more if you like).
- Sprinkle shredded Cheddar cheese over the top of the sour cream and over the beans.
- Sprinkle with cilantro leaves (optional) if you like and serve immediately.
- NOTE: If you don't have access to canned diced tomatoes with chilis, then you can substitute an equal amount of chunky salsa, if you like.
- You may wish to provide a bowl of additional sour cream as well as a bowl of more cheese for guests to add extra to each serving, but it isn't necessary.
SHERRIED BLACK BEAN SOUP
When I was first introduced to the Mexican author Laura Esquivel, I didn't realize who she was. After one of NTWH's performances, she told me she wanted to write on our behalf. "Are you a writer?" I queried. Much to my embarrassment, in her humility she simply answered "Yes." A fellow Jesuit whispered into my ear, "Dunderhead, she's the author and screenwriter of Like Water for Chocolate." We have since become great friends. She cooks for me often, and shows me the warmth and love of all of Mexico from her kitchen. This Sherried Black Bean Soup has a Mexican tang.

Steps:
- In a large, heavy saucepan, bring the beans and 4 cups of water to a boil. Boil briskly for 2 minutes, then remove from the heat and let stand, covered, for 1 hour.
- In a 5-quart Dutch oven, melt the butter. Add the onions, celery, carrot, and garlic, and cook until soft but not browned. Add the ham hock, the remaining 4 cups water, parsley, salt, cayenne pepper, cloves, mustard seed, bay leaf, and beans (with their liquid). Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat, and simmer for about 3 hours.
- Remove the ham hocks and let cool slightly. Remove and discard bay leaf. Place about half of the beans with about 1 cup of the liquid from the soup in a blender or food processor. Process until smooth. Return the puree to the soup in the Dutch oven.
- Remove the ham from its bone and add the meat to the soup. (Discard fat, bones and skin.) Reheat the soup over medium heat. Stir in the sherry. Serve hot soup with choice of garnishes to sprinkle on top.
SAVORY BLACK BEANS & RICE
This is a great recipe I found on the back of a Ranch Style Brand can of Black Beans with Jalapeno Peppers. I recommend using organic brown rice and cooking it the long way (not instant) - it just tastes better.
