The name already reveals something about the dual application of this unique broad bean: in addition to the well-known "shelling" of the unripe seeds, this variety is extra suitable for harvesting young pods: mange-tout! The young pods are very soft, tender, and deliciously sweet. This remarkably prolific broad bean still yields enough pods for old-fashioned shelling. You will immediately notice that the skin is very thin.
