Rinse beans. Cover them with water; let them soak several hours. Pour off excess water. Place in saucepan with 3 1/2 cups water and salt. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer 1 1/2 hours, over very low heat. Sauté onion, garlic, carrot, celery, coriander and cumin together. If necessary, add a little water to vegetables to steam them. When ready, add sautéed ingredients to beans. Let soup simmer over lowest possible heat. Add oranges, orange juice, sherry, black pepper, red pepper and lemon juice to soup. Give it a stir.
