E.g. Orange-infused black bean soup.Another surprising pairing - oranges and beans. However, there is no shortage of recipes using them together. You can find them in salads, stews and soups with orange acting as a vibrant accent to the deep earthy flavours of the black beans.
Alexandra from Alexandra Cooks has this to say about the two.
Several years ago, while cooking my way through the soup chapter of Twelve Recipes, I discovered Cal Peternell’s black bean soup. What I loved about the recipe was the simplicity of the flavors: sautéed onion and garlic, toasted cumin seed and crushed red pepper flakes. But there was an element of surprise, too, lent by the zest of an orange. Somehow, through all of the bold, beany flavors, the citrusy brightness prevailed.
