What are borlotti beans?

Borlotti Beans are medium-sized, speckled beans widely used in Italian cuisine. They are similar in texture to kidney beans but have a softer, creamier bite and a subtle nutty flavour.

Due to their nutritious composition and firm texture, borlotti beans are very suitable for soups, stews, and salads. They are also often used as a plant-based protein source in vegetarian dishes.

Preparation

For best results, it is recommended to soak borlotti beans beforehand.

Preparation steps:

• Rinse the beans with cold water

• Soak them in plenty of water for 8–12 hours

• Drain and boil in fresh water

• Cooking time: approximately 60–90 minutes

Storage

Store dried borlotti beans in a well-sealed package in a cool, dry, and dark place. This way, they will stay fresh for a long time. Older beans may require a slightly longer cooking time.
