Chef's Notes
Dry beans yield a vastly superior flavor and texture compared to canned alternatives, absorbing the complex spices while maintaining a sturdy bite before the immersion blender works its magic.
Pro Tip
Do not skip the natural pressure release phase! Rushing this process with a quick release will leave your black beans stubbornly crunchy and ruin the velvety texture of the soup.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
Forgetting to add enough vegetable broth for dry beans will cause your pressure cooker to scorch the bottom, turning your magnificent soup into a blackened charcoal monolith that requires professional archaeological excavation.

Royal Court Comedy

The Culinary Science
Soaking or pressure-cooking beans in a neutral to slightly salted environment helps break down complex indigestible sugars while keeping the bean skins intact and tender.
