A versatile Mexico-grown, mid-sized white bean that is rich and creamy yet holds its shape through long cooking.

A dense, rich bean with a thicker skin. When fully cooked, it has a creamy and starchy consistency with a mild potato-like flavor.

Originally from Oaxaca, Mexico, the Ayocote family was one of the first cultivated crops of the Americas. They are grown all over central and northern Mexico, but tend to be more popular in indigenous communities.

Rancho Gordo works at the intersection of agricultural heritage and culinary tradition, reviving heirloom beans and grains once nearly lost to industrial agriculture. Based in Napa, California, the company partners with small farms in the U.S. and Mexico to grow crops rooted in regional identity and cultural memory. Each variety is carefully selected for flavor, texture, and resilience, offering a vibrant alternative to commodity legumes while supporting sustainable, community-based farming practices.

Ingredients: Ayocote Blanco Beans

To prepare Ayocote Blanco 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, partially covering the pot. 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.
