So, what is black beans?

Black beans, also known as turtle beans, are a staple ingredient in Latin American cuisine. These small, jet-black legumes have a dense, meaty texture and a nutty, slightly sweet flavor. They are packed with protein, fiber, and iron, making them a nutritious addition to any diet. Black beans are versatile and can be used in a variety of dishes, from soups and stews to salads and dips. They also make a great vegetarian or vegan substitute for meat in many recipes. Soak them overnight before cooking, or use canned black beans for convenience.
