Peruano Beans

Satisfy your craving for authentic Mexican cuisine with genuine Heirloom Peruano Beans from Capaul Family Farms! These flavorful beans are grown in Meridian, California and offer a unique buttery flavor and silky texture that is far superior to ordinary store-bought pinto, cannellini or great northern beans. Who knew meals featuring this common yellow heirloom bean—also known as the “Canary Bean”—could make such a delicious difference? The true roots of these special beans lie in Mexico, more specifically in a small village called Peruviana where people have been using them for centuries. Perfect for making refried beans in classic Guadalajaran style — simply heat and mash with oil, lard or butter — they're also ideal for soups and side dishes.

ABOUT THE CAPAUL FAMILY

For over a century the Capaul family has been growing beans in the Sacremento Valley community of Meridian. Chris Capaul's grandfather started the farm in 1915 and beans quickly became a staple crop.
