12.0 Ounce

Dried, organic black beans, sometimes known as turtle beans, have a creamier and more complex texture than their canned counterparts. Plus, they are more nutritious than canned beans and keep for just as long.

Cooking Instructions: In a 4 quart saucepan, soak 1 cup of black beans in 3 cups of water and 1 tbsp water overnight, for 8-12 hours. Drain and rinse beans and combine with 3 cups of water and 1 tsp salt. Bring to a boil, cover with a tight fitting lid, then reduce heat (low boil). Simmer for 90 minutes or until tender.

Penn Yan, NY

New York State has a rich agricultural history, including the farming of dried beans. In fact, the US dry bean industry began in Western, NY in the mid-nineteenth century. Western NY remained the center of domestic dried bean production for many years, reaching 500,000 bushels by the 1890s.

Over the last decade there has been a renaissance of family farming across NYS, including the growing of dried beans. At the forefront of this movement is Peter Martens of Seneca Grain & Bean. Peter & Hannah Martens Farm grows a variety of organic dried beans, as well as a variety of organic grains. Their mill is certified organic with NOFA-NY and they exclusively handle organic grains.
