Description
Nóstimo Organic Haricot Beans are small, creamy white beans (also known as navy beans) packed simply in water and ready to eat. The can holds just two ingredients — organic haricot beans and water — with no added salt or sugar, so the natural, mild flavour of the bean does the work. They are part of the Nóstimo Italian Collection, our Mediterranean range canned in Italy and certified organic to IT-BIO-007.
Nutritionally they earn their place in the cupboard: high in fibre and high in protein at, while staying naturally low in fat and low in salt. That makes them an easy way to add plant protein and fibre to everyday cooking. Being pre-cooked, there is no soaking or overnight prep — just open, drain and rinse, and they are ready for the pan or the bowl.
Haricot beans are wonderfully versatile. They are the classic bean behind homemade baked beans, and they hold their shape beautifully in Tuscan soups like ribollita and minestrone, in cassoulet, in bean salads, and blended into smooth dips. Each 400g can gives roughly 240g of drained beans. Once opened, transfer any unused beans to a non-metallic container, refrigerate and use within three days.
