Black Beans 2 articles

Black beans are small common beans with dark skins and a creamy interior, widely used in Latin American and Caribbean cooking. They appear in soups, burritos, tacos, grain bowls, and bean burgers and are sold both dried and fully cooked in cans. Like other pulses, they provide plant protein and fiber, but the dark skin and distinctive cooking liquid set them apart from pinto or white beans. Rinsing canned beans changes the sodium and liquid carried into a dish.
