Can a bean be romantic? We think so! Teparies are indigenous to North America and were developed by Native Americans to be drought-tolerant. Higher in protein and fiber than other beans (which are already super foods), what more can you ask for in food? Flavor and texture? You got it! The small beans plump up a bit but keep a meaty, dense texture. Can you tell we're smitten? The beans are savory but the white version tends to be slightly sweet. Tepary beans look like lentils but they have nothing in common with lentils other than their small, compact size. In fact, they take as long to cook as an avergae-sized bean. Really a splendid bean worth discovering. Suggestions: Pot beans, chiles, salads, stews, puree, baked beans, cassoulet   Product of California. These regional beans were grown in the Unites States by Rancho Gordo
