Are the black beans canned or dried? If dried, are they soaked overnight first? The sodium on the nutritional info is awfully low if those are canned beans…
You can make this recipe your own, and yes if you use dried black beans, you must soak them at least overnight, and I usually soak them, and drain, and put fresh water on them to soak longer. I read one time it makes them softer, and if you soak for a full 24 hours, they are also easier to digest. One more thing, if you heat your water to boiling, then soak them for 8-14 hours, it is said to speed up the cooking process. Enjoy and Happy Crocking.
The canned Black Beans say “drained and rinsed”! This should help with the sodium content.
As I am a vegetarian, I substituted quinoa for the turkey and got a very hearty chili with less liquid. Awesome recipe. Thank you!
