Bob's Red Mill, Cannellini Heritage Beans, 24 oz (680 g)

A favorite in Italy, these large white beans are remarkably creamy, with a mild, nutty flavor. Cannellini beans plump up beautifully and hold their shape when cooked, making them perfect for pasta dishes, stews and casseroles. They are an excellent source of fiber and iron.

Dear Friends, I can remember learning about the glories of beans when I was young lad in grammar school. Just before spring holiday, our teacher gave us glass jar filled with soil and a handful of brightly colored beans. I pressed those living seeds into the dirt and when we returned a week later, I was astounded by the sight of the green shoots that had sprung forth. Today, my sense of wonder with beans, their pleasant flavors and healthful bounty thrives on in my line of Heritage Beans.

Cannellini beans originated in Argentina, but they are most popular in Italy, especially in the region of Tuscany. It's no wonder why this bean is so beloved by Italian cooks - it s wonderfully plump, with a texture that is rich, meaty and terrifically smooth. Short of growing them yourself, these are the freshest cannellini beans you can get - you can tell by the wonderful nutty flavor and perfectly creamy texture.

I hope that you will delight in this magnificent bean by cooking a hearty portion for you and yours.

To your Good Health, Bob Moore
