Black Bean Paste

EverydayCooked

Black bean paste is a smooth, cooked legume puree widely used in Latin American and Asian cuisines. This plant-based staple retains the high protein and fiber of whole black beans while offering a thick, spreadable texture ideal for sauces, dips, and meat alternatives. Its earthy flavor with subtle sweetness adapts to both savory dishes like refried beans and sweet applications such as Chinese dessert fillings, providing a nutrient-dense, gluten-free foundation for diverse recipes.
