HABICHUELAS NEGRAS

PUERTO RICAN STYLE STEWED BLACK BEANS

Rinse thoroughly and remove any rocks or scraps from the dry beans. *See note if using canned beans.

In a large soup pot combine beans, sofrito, adobo seasoning, salt, bay leaves, oil, and water. Stir everything together and bring to a boil, before lowering the heat to a simmer.

Remove the bay leaves and serve the beans with rice and garnish with a squeeze of lime juice and sprig of cilantro.
