Boccia Dried Borlotti Beans, 500g
Description
Dried borlotti beans are a staple ingredient in Italian cooking. They are light beige in colour with deep pink or brown markings. Once cooked, they have a creamy texture and mild, nutty flavour.
In Italy, borlotti beans are added to rustic soups and stews. They are also delicious in salads with fresh herbs and white wine vinegar. In Portugal, the beans are paired with big flavours like garlic, paprika and spicy sausage.
Borlotti beans retain their shape and texture, even after lengthy cooking. Try braising them with onions, garlic and stock to make a hearty side dish for roast lamb. Blend any leftover beans with a splash of olive oil to make a creamy dip.
To cook the beans, soak them in water for 5-6 hours or overnight. Then, add them to a pan of cold water and bring to the boil. Simmer for 30-45 minutes until tender.
Store in a cool dry place.
