Tolosana Round Black Beans, 400g

£8.25

Tolosana round black beans are originally from the Basque country, though our 2024 harvest is from Castilla y Leon. The name comes from the market town of Tolosa where local folk have bought and sold these medium, round and dark little pearls for centuries. Its cultivation is now more extended as its appreciation grows. View recipe.

FAQs

What are the best ways to use Tolosana beans?

Navarrico Tolosana beans are dark, almost black-coloured beans prized for their rich, nutty flavour. They shine in rustic stews with chorizo or cured meats, braised with tomatoes and peppers, or tossed with roasted vegetables and fresh herbs. Their distinctive taste stands out, making them perfect for showcasing premium beans without heavy seasoning.
