    1 small jalapeño, seeded and thinly sliced
    2 tablespoons minced red onion
    2 tablespoons chopped cilantro
    5 tablespoons fresh lime juice
    Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
    1 small head of napa cabbage, shredded (4 cups)
    2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more for brushing

    Ten 7-inch flour tortillas, warmed
    2 medium tomatoes, thinly sliced

    Black Bean Soup with Avocado Salsa

    Ingredients

    6 cups drained and rinsed canned black beans (three 19-ounce cans)
    4 cups canned low-sodium chicken broth or homemade stock
    2 tablespoons cooking oil
    1 onion, chopped
    1 1/2 teaspoons salt
    1/2 cup dry sherry
    1 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
    2 avocados, preferably Hass, cut into 1/2-inch dice
    1/4 cup chopped cilantro or flat-leaf parsley
    6 radishes, halved and sliced thin
    2 tablespoons lime juice

    Directions

    Combine 3 cups of the beans and 1 cup of chicken broth in a blender or

    food processor and puree until smooth.

    In a large saucepan, heat the oil over moderate heat. Add the onion and

    1 teaspoon of the salt and cook, stirring frequently, until the onion is soft,

    about 5 minutes. Increase the heat, add the sherry, and boil until reduced

    to approximately 1/4 cup, about 3 minutes.

    Add the bean puree, 1/2 teaspoon of the pepper, and the remaining 3 cups of

    chicken broth and 3 cups of beans. Simmer until hot, about 5 minutes.

    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the avocados, cilantro, radishes, lime juice,

    and the remaining 1/2 teaspoon each of salt and pepper. Mix gently. S

    poon the soup into bowls and top with the salsa.

    Notes:
    If the radishes aren’t perfectly crisp, soak them in a bowl of ice water. A few minutes of shock may be just enough to revive them.
