1 (14.5 ounce) can tomato puree
2 cups water or cooking liquid from beans

Cook beans separately in water to cover by 1 1/2 inches until almost tender. Drain, reserving cooking liquids for soup, except from black beans, if desired.
Remove casing from sausage; crumble sausage. Crush dried jalapeno peppers. Sauté sausage, crushed peppers and onion in oil until cooked through. Raise heat to medium-high and continue cooking until ingredients become richly brown, but not burned. Drain sausage and onion on a paper towel. Combine all ingredients in a large stockpot. Simmer soup for 45 minutes. Season to taste with salt. Continue simmering 15 minutes. Remove Corn Husk Garni.
NOTE: If there is not enough liquid in soup, add additional water or cooking liquid from beans.
