Black Beans with Garlic and Cumin

The familiar version, served in Latin American restaurants everywhere. Leave the beans soupy if you plan to serve them over rice. Allow plenty of time, because black beans can take a while, and they’re best served quite soft. But by all means prepare them in advance if you can and reheat before serving.

Other legumes you can prepare this way: red beans, white beans.
