This very special bean is bred from the exact same seed famously grown in France and Spain. It is creamy and absolutely delicious in everything from the classic braises it is known for to purees, soups and more.

  • Non-GMO
  • Certified Regenerative Farmed
  • Certified Organic
  • Broth notes: light-bodied, fresh, herbal
  • Pair with: tomatoes, sweet peppers, grassy olive oil, fresh herbs

How To Cook Them: Cassoulet beans are large and dense so they will take longer to cook from dried compared to other varieties, but ours are so incredibly fresh the'll take less time than most dried cassoulet beans you find. Always add salt to your cooking water, no matter what you've heard, it helps the beans soften and absorb water. In a pressure cooker, cook on high for 42 minutes with a 15 minutes natural release. On the stovetop from dry bring to a boil and then reduce to a simmer for 2- 3 hours. 

Harvested: Fall 2024

Fresh Beans = Last Year's Harvest! Don't worry—this is actually when beans are freshest. After fall harvest, they spend winter being carefully processed and are bagged fresh each spring. So 2024 beans in 2025 means peak freshness! We believe beans are best within 2 years of harvest (others say 3), ensuring you get the finest quality.

Bad beans

I cooked half the beans without soaking overnight. I should say I tried to cook them. Five and half hours of a high simmer, topping off the water as needed and they were still hard in the center. Soaked the other half over night with the same results. Plus a fishy taste. Hope the next bean type goes a whole bunch better.

Lovely beans.

Lovely beans. I bake them slowly in a Dutch oven at 225F for four or five hours, in chicken stock with savory Indian spices.

Not tender!

The pkg said soaking wasn't required but this was a grave mistake on my part. The outside of the bean remains tough.

We’re sorry to hear the beans didn’t get tender as expected! We encourage skipping the soak to make cooking beans a little more accessible and time-friendly, but we also know that every kitchen is different. Water hardness, acidic ingredients (like tomatoes or vinegar), and even altitude can all affect how beans cook. If soaking works better for you, we absolutely support that - your method should suit your rhythm and preferences.

Followed a recipe from Sunset Magazine and used up the last of the Xmas ham. First time using the instant pot to prep the beans. Happy results
