Recipe Instructions:

  1. BLACK BEANS :
  2. Rinse the beans and combine then in a 4-quart pot with the epazote (if using), garlic, and about 6 cups water.
  3. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring occasionally, then reduce the heat to low and simmer covered until the beans are just tender, about 1 hour.
  4. Add 1 tsp. salt and simmer gently for another 10 minutes.
  5. Remove the beans from the heat and let cool in their liquid. (You can prepare the beans up to 1 day ahead; refrigerate in their liquid.)
  6. Drain the cooked beans, reserving the liquid.
  7. Return the beans to the pot and add the cilantro, chipotle, cumin and about 1 cup of the reserved bean liquid.
  8. Simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally for about 10 minutes.
  9. The beans should be very moist; if necessary add more of the bean liquid.
  10.  GRIDDLECALES:
  11. In a large bowl sift the amaranth flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, baking soda and ¾ tsp. salt.
  12. Whisk in the cornmeal and pine nuts.
  13. Melt 2-1/2 Tbsp. of the butter in a medium bowl, whisk the buttermilk, egg and melted butter.
  14.  Stir in the chilies.
  15. Melt the remaining ½ Tbsp. butter in a 10-inch nonstick pan over medium heat.
  16. Add the corn kernels, scallions, jalapeno and a pinch of salt; cook stirring until the corn shows a few light-brown spots, about 5 minutes.
  17. Stir the corn mixture into the wet ingredients.
  18. You can prepare the griddlecakes to this point up to 4 hours ahead.
  19. When ready to cook the cakes, combine the wet and dry ingredients being careful not to overmix.
  20. Heat about 2 tsp. olive oil in a large nonstick pan or on a griddle over medium high heat.
  21. Drop ¼ cup of the batter at a time onto the hot pan and gently spread with the tip of a spoon to make 3-inch cakes.
  22. Cook until tiny air bubbles begin to pop through the tops. 3 to 4 minutes; then flip them and cook until deep golden brown and crisp on the bottom, about 3 minutes.
  23. Transfer to a plate and keep warm.
  24. Ladle the beans into shallow bowls and top with griddlecakes.
