About Purple string beans
Purple string beans, a vibrant twist on the classic green bean, are native to regions of Central and South America but are now enjoyed worldwide. Their striking purple hue comes from anthocyanins, antioxidants known for their health benefits. These beans are rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as fiber, making them excellent for immune support, skin health, and digestion. Low in calories and naturally fat-free, they are a heart-friendly and weight-conscious choice. When cooked, their purple color often transitions to green, adding visual appeal to stir-fries, salads, and roasted dishes. They pair well with various cuisines, from Mediterranean to Asian-inspired recipes. Best consumed fresh, they retain their nutrients and crispy texture. However, like all legumes, moderation is key as they contain natural compounds that can affect digestion in some people. Overall, purple string beans offer a nutritious, versatile addition to any meal.
