Same as the Cubans do with their black beans for their black beans and rice.

How do you get the starch "out the beans?"

@LiveOakOkie What Chef Paul is saying is to cook the beans long enough that they begin to break down and the now soft insides of the beans begin to flow into the broth you are cooking them in. The starch from the insides of the beans thicken the broth while taking on the complex flavors in the broth. (Tasso, onion, garlic, bell pepper, celery, andouille sausage, pepper, etc)

Yeah, it sounded good, but the "how to" was missing. What spices exactly? When do you put them in? How do you get the starch out of the beans since you cooked them already? Lots missing from this video that we need.
