Heat the oil in a soup pot over medium heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery, and cumin and cook, stirring, until the vegetables are soft, about 10 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, another minute.
Stir in the black beans, tomatoes and chiles, and dissolved Fond de Poulet Gold® or Glace de Poulet Gold®. Bring the soup to a simmer and cook, uncovered, about 15 minutes.
Remove the soup from the heat. Purée it in small batches in a blender (or use a hand blender). Season to taste with salt and pepper. Serve the soup garnished with sour cream and cilantro.
