As far as legumes go, borlotti beans (also known as cranberry beans) are some of the most colourful and pretty beans out there. This hearty bean has a light, beige-pink colour to them with spots of red-brown speckles all over.
The borlotti bean is versatile, easy to use, and simple to prepare. Use it for casseroles, as a side dish, mix into a soup, or cook and cool to serve in a salad. They act as great substitutes when you’re out of kidney, cannelloni or pinto beans.
