Kidney Beans

Description

Certified Organic Kidney Beans from Argentina.

Kidney beans have a firm skin and fluffy inside, so they readily hold up in meaty dishes like chili or a veggie burger patty. All beans contain lectins, which are proteins that can be toxic if the beans are not cooked thoroughly. That said, red kidney beans are particularly high in one type of lectin, so take care to prepare them properly. To this end, soak your beans for 24 hours before boiling them on high for at least 20 minutes.
