Long yard beans, also known as asparagus beans or Chinese long beans, are a nutrient-rich vegetable popular in Asian, African, and Southeast Asian cuisines. These slender, green legumes can grow up to three feet in length and have a mildly sweet, earthy flavor. Packed with essential nutrients, they are an excellent source of dietary fiber, vitamin C, folate, and manganese, while also providing a good dose of protein and iron. Their low calorie content and high fiber make them ideal for weight management and digestive health. Long yard beans are typically stir-fried, added to curries, or used in salads, offering versatility in healthy cooking. They are low in fat and cholesterol; however, they can become less healthy when fried or cooked with excess oils.
