A staple of Italian kitchens, Borlotti Beans are plump, flavorful legumes known for their pink-beige color streaked with red. La Valletta’s borlotti beans are prized for their slightly sweet, nutty flavor and creamy, yet firm texture, making them as versatile as they are delicious.
Like other dried beans, they should be soaked for 12 hours or overnight before cooking. Once simmered gently with aromatics for about an hour, they take on a rich, creamy consistency that makes them ideal for countless dishes.
Versatile and nourishing, Borlotti Beans are perfect for:
Adding to soups, stews, and brothy bean bowls
Stewing in tomato sauce and serving over creamy polenta
Tossing with pasta or using in a classic minestrone
Pairing with sautéed greens such as swiss chard
Serving as a rustic contorno with roasted fish or meats
Nutritious and satisfying, these beans bring hearty Italian tradition straight to your table.
