About Heirloom beans

Heirloom beans are a diverse group of naturally preserved bean varieties passed down through generations, valued for their unique flavors, textures, and colors. Originating from regions across the globe, they play a vital role in traditional cuisines, from Mexican to Mediterranean dishes. Rich in plant-based protein, dietary fiber, and essential nutrients like iron, magnesium, and potassium, heirloom beans are a heart-healthy option that supports digestion and promotes sustained energy levels. These beans are free of cholesterol and low in fat, making them an excellent choice for weight management and overall wellness. However, they contain natural compounds called lectins, which can be reduced through proper soaking and cooking. Whether featured in soups, salads, or stews, heirloom beans are a versatile, nutrient-packed addition to any diet.
