Organic Flageolet Beans

These aren't just any beans—they're the pale jade jewels that French chefs have been keeping secret for generations. These organic dried flageolet beans from our friends at Fifth Crow Farms are so fresh they cook up in a fraction of the time you'd expect, transforming into the creamiest, most luxurious spoonful you've ever tasted. One bite of these specialty beans, and you'll understand why they've earned their place in classic cassoulet and alongside summer's perfect lamb.

You know that moment when a bean is tender but still holds its shape? When it's creamy but not mushy? That perfect sweet spot that seems impossible to hit? These heirloom beans nail it. Their thin skins give way to a velvety interior that absorbs flavor like nothing else in your pantry.

High in fiber and protein while remaining gentle on the digestive system, flageolets are the nutritious heirloom beans that should be in every health-conscious cook's arsenal. Their low glycemic index makes them perfect for balanced meals that sustain energy without spiking blood sugar.

Cooking tip: These exceptional beans need little more than good olive oil, fresh herbs, and a splash of lemon to shine. Though they're equally at home in hearty stews, grain bowls, or pureed into the creamiest dip you've ever served.

From Fifth Crow Farms' regenerative soil to your supper, these ethically sourced beans represent everything good food should be: delicious, nutritious, and kind to the earth that grew them.

WHAT TO DO WITH THEM

Flageolet is mild and creamy and pairs perfectly with chicken, fish or lamb but also make a wonderful vegetarian dish. We love it in our Roasted Cauliflower and Flageolet Soup. They work great in anything slow cooked like a cassoulet because although they are mild and tender they hold their shape with long cooking. We love them slow cooked on the stove with stock, onion and tomatoes. The flageolet is a favorite among many chefs for everything from soups to sides and they'll find a perfect place on your table.
