Borlotto Bean Harvest


I have picked half of the Borlotto Bean Lingua di fuoco I planted. I'm allowing them to dry before shelling them. The under mature green beans will be be blanched and frozen to be used as a flageolet bean. The mature beans will be dried and used in soups and stews as well as on their own with sausages.
