 | Cranberry Shelling Beans *L* Also known as a Borlotti Bean, Cranberry Shelling Bean is a wonderful variety that is at its best when fresh. The ecru beans are streaked with bright cherry red, and when cooked, they turn a taupey-pink. They are easy to shell and cook fairly quickly. They hold their shape well, have a very creamy texture and a mildly nutty flavor. Like the Cannellini, the Cranberry Bean made its way from South America to Europe. The popularity of Tuscan flavors has placed the Cranberry second in popularity to the Cannellini, but if anything, it's a bit more flavorful than its pale cousin, and it is the bean that is preferred in Venice. Nothing matches the flavor and texture of a fresh Cranberry Bean. You will taste the difference. SUPC: 4544094 | |
