I love black beans as well. They are tied for my favorite with kidney beans. For seasoning, I use a lot of chili powder, like two heaping tablespoons, some cumin, garlic, onions, a little ketchup and a dash or two of hot sauce. I know you don't like cumin, so you would leave that out. I think I use three cloves of garlic, a small onion finely chopped and a tablespoon or so of ketchup.
@shyvas Hmmmm... if you love black beans, maybe you don't need to add the usual seasonings to them at all- just cook them until they're done, maybe mash them if you want a puree/thick paste texture instead of individual beans, and put them in a sandwich, tossed salad, macaroni salad, risotto, over cooked pasta, in some sort of casserole....Love, love black beans but I wouldn't like the seasoning. I don't like chili powder, garlic and raw onions.....neither Ketchup!
I think that I added yeast flakes, chickpea flour, onion powder, smoked paprika et perhaps Aldi Mrs Dash style plus some liquid smoke to mine. However, I still didn't like the end result. Perhaps I'll try again.
