ANASAZI BEANS - Kosher/Naturally Gluten Free

ANA-10, ANA-5

Description:

Anasazi Beans, also called Cave Bean, are a small legume related to the Kidney Bean. These beans are ½ inch long, kidney-shaped, with a sweet, mild flavor and mealy, firm texture. Dappled burgundy and cream colors, Anasazi Beans resemble the colors and markings of the "painted horse". This bean will fade when cooked to form a dark pink.

Compared to other beans, it contains only 25% of the specific complex carbohydrates that produce gastric distress, making it a popular addition to soups, casseroles, and even burgers!

A great substitute for pinto beans.

Ingredient Statement:

Heirloom Bean

Anasazi beans are a hearty addition to chili, casseroles, burgers, and soups and commonly can replace Pinto Beans in any recipe. Great for refried beans and exceptional when mixed with hot chiles, cilantro, and lime. Soak and cook, 1 cup dry yields about 2 ¼ cups cooked.

Recommended Preparation Instructions:

Soak overnight.  Rinse and place in a large pot and cover with fresh water.  Bring water to a boil for 3 minutes, reduce heat, and simmer, covered, for 1 hour or until tender.
