Description:

Vibrantly colored and tasty as well, Jacobs Cattle beans are an Heirloom bean related to the Kidney bean. These brightly patterned bean seeds were handed down within a small community for several generations. Jacobs Cattle beans are slim, shiny, and white with splashes of deep maroon; resembling the hide of spotted Hereford cattle. The bean is about 5/8" long, with a plump kidney shape, earthy flavor, and sweet, mealy texture. Renowned for its baking qualities, Jacobs Cattle beans are good in salads or on their own as a side dish. This bean may also be referred to as a Trout Bean, Dalmatian bean, and Torellen. Jacobs Cattle can be substituted for any bean in the haricot family.
