Heirloom Beans From Rancho Gordo
Rancho Gordo's Royal Corona Beans are heirloom runner beans originating from Mesoamerica, refined in Italy, and cultivated in Poland. These large, white beans are celebrated for their creamy texture and rich flavor. Hand-harvested and dried, they exemplify Rancho Gordo's commitment to preserving traditional bean varieties and supporting sustainable agriculture. The beans' substantial size and hearty consistency make them a versatile ingredient in various culinary applications
How to Use:
To prepare Royal Corona Beans, rinse thoroughly and soak for 2 to 6 hours to reduce cooking time. In a large pot, sauté aromatic vegetables like onions, garlic, celery, and carrots in olive oil. Add the beans and enough water to cover them by about 2 inches. Bring to a full boil for 10 to 15 minutes, then reduce heat to a gentle simmer, covering the pot partially. Cook until tender, approximately 1 to 3 hours, salting when the beans begin to soften. These beans are excellent in salads, soups, casseroles, and as a meat alternative in various dishes.
