Phaseolus vulgaris

The Hungarian Rice Bean is a rare heirloom from Hungary that produces tiny rice-like beans! Young pods can be eaten as a delicious and tender snap bean. Pods remain tender for a long time, and will keep producing all season if kept picked. Dried beans are equally tasty, and can be cooked without pre-soaking due to their small size and thin skin. They stay intact while cooking, and have a lovely creamy texture. Their tiny size is perfect for adorable hors d'oeuvres!
