Ingredients:

• 2 cans black beans
• 1 cup vegetable stock (I choose to use Better Than Bouillon)
• 1/4 cup dehydrated onions
• 1/4 cup dehydrated celery
• 3 slices dehydrated elephant garlic, crumbled
• 2 slices fried bacon, crumbled
• good squirt of lemon juice
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• 1 teaspoon Worcestershire Sauce
• 1 teaspoon tomato ketchup
• salt* and pepper to taste

Here's What You Do!

1. Re-hydrate the onions, celery, garlic, and drain well.
2. Cook the bacon in a saucepan, take it out when cooked and let it cool so you can crumble it up later.
3. Add the re-hydrated items to the pan and the bacon grease, cook for about five minutes.
   
4. Add the cup of vegetable stock.
5. Add the two cans of beans, drain them first but no need to rinse them. Add the Worcestershire Sauce and the ketchup, add the crumbled bacon.
6. Stir together well, simmer ten minutes, then add the lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste, and stir again ... and serve with a blob of sour cream! Yummy!

*IF you need to add salt, do so, BUT be careful NOT to over-salt as the bouillon tastes quite salty.

Get creative with your blob of sour cream, see if you can stir it gently into a nice swirl! If you like a thick bean soup, leave the stock at 1 cup; or if you prefer a 'thinner' stock by all means add an extra half a cup of vegetable stock. You can decide at the very end whether to add more stock or not. Just stir it in well.

A little note here about beans. If you prefer to suffer from less gas, and who wouldn't, then consider rinsing the beans first as this takes away most of the gaseous effect of the beans. Just grab your sieve and rinse them under the kitchen faucet ... easy!
