Galician Flageolet Beans, 400g

£0.00

DESCRIPTION

Flageolet 'Verdina' beans are a rare variety grown in the lush, rain-soaked regions of Asturias and Galicia, with our latest harvest sourced from Galicia.

The name 'Verdina' comes from the Spanish word 'verde,' meaning 'green,' which perfectly captures the vibrant hue of these beans. They are harvested early, before they have a chance to dry in the pod, and are then carefully dried in the dark to preserve their striking colour and exceptional flavour profile.

Verdina beans are about 15mm long and flat. They are planted in May and need a lot of water (hence their origin in rainy Northern Spain) before being harvested in November.

They are creamy, with a gentle flavour and very thin skin.
