Marcella Beans

Rancho Gordo - Marcella Beans

Marcella beans are grown in California from Italian Sorana seedstock. Sorana is a cannellini bean with incredibly thin skin and when cooked properly, an indulgent creamy texture. You can use them in your kitchen as you would any small white, European-style bean, but with an ingredient like this, simple is often better.

Use them in your kitchen as you would any small white, European-style bean. Add them mashed on some good crusty bread drizzled with your very best extra virgin olive oil and maybe a dusting of freshly cracked pepper.
