Origin: Central America

The large pods (20 cm) bear a good number of beans. This ancient climbing variety may have been developed in Italy as early as the 17th century and settled in France in the 18th century. This variety is still very popular due to its refined taste and soft seed coat. Harvested young, the bean is particularly delicious as a tender stringless green bean.

Dry beans are harvested in different ways. Some varieties can also be eaten with the entire pod, others can only be eaten fresh or (matured) dry. Tip for storing dry beans: to prevent any bean fly eggs from hatching, place the well-dried beans in the freezer for 24 hours.
