Where’s the full recipe - why can I only see the ingredients?

Accompaniments: Thin cornbread

Always check the publication for a full list of ingredients. An Eat Your Books index lists the main ingredients and does not include 'store-cupboard ingredients' (salt, pepper, oil, flour, etc.) - unless called for in significant quantity.

Notes about this recipe

  • kbrooks on March 16, 2026

    We absolutely love this! It's so much more than just black beans and macaroni. I used Rancho Gordo ayocote negro beans. Reduced the amount of macaroni to one cup and it was still a lot of pasta in proportion to the beans. May reduce it to 3/4 cup next time. Used 2 whole jarred roasted red peppers. Glugged in a bit more red wine than called for. Flavor packed soup! Served with grilled provolone and prosciutto sandwiches on thinly sliced Scotch Unkneaded Bread (bread recipe on pg.115 of this book).
