Directions
- Add the rinsed beans to a dutch oven. Pour in enough water to completely cover the beans by about 2-inches. Stir in the bay leaf and garlic. Bring to a boil over high heat and allow to boil for 5 minutes.
- Reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 2 hours and 30 minutes or until beans are tender.
- Drain the beans and reserve any liquid. Return the drained beans to the pot and stir in the orange zest, orange juice, vinegar, cumin, cayenne, and 1 tsp salt. Add the reserved liquid a little at a time until you reach desired consistency. Simmer over medium-low heat about 10 more minutes and season with salt to taste.
- Transfer beans to a serving bowl and garnish with fresh cilantro.
