Description
Creamy, mild and wonderfully versatile, Organic Dried Butter Beans are a useful store cupboard staple for hearty, wholesome cooking. Their soft, creamy texture and delicate flavour make them perfect for absorbing herbs, spices and rich sauces, while adding substance to a wide variety of dishes.
Once soaked and cooked, butter beans are delicious in soups, stews and casseroles, particularly Mediterranean-inspired dishes with tomatoes, garlic and herbs. Try them in curries, add them to salads and grain bowls, or blend cooked butter beans with lemon, garlic and olive oil to make a smooth and creamy dip.
Their naturally creamy texture also makes butter beans a great ingredient for plant-based cooking. They can be mashed into fillings, blended into sauces or used to add body to soups without the need for dairy.
