Greek organic beans "Plaké" small white delicacy beans from Jan 27

White delicate beans are still gladly used in traditional Greek cuisine for delicious dishes such as bean soup, stew, or a summery salad with beans. The beans are even perfect for classic Chili con Carne.

As a fine, regional main course or side dish, they can also be prepared in the oven with freshly grated tomato and lemon juice.

White beans are naturally rich in plant-based proteins, which are particularly important for a vegetarian or vegan diet, but also for muscle building. They have a low fat and sugar content, making them great for a diet.

In addition, thanks to their many fiber, they keep you full for an extremely long time.

Our bean variety bears the nickname "Plaké". This addition stands for the attribute that the bean has a very thin skin. This reduces the cooking time and makes it particularly suitable for a delicious bean soup.

Rinse the beans the day before and let them soak in water overnight. The next day, rinse them again with fresh water, cover them with water in a saucepan and simmer over low heat for about 45-60 minutes until they are soft.
