Mayocoba Bean

Description

A classic, thin-skinned but meaty bean that will take on all the flavors you can throw at it but still hold its shape.

There is some debate over the origins of Mayocoba, and whether it’s native to Mexico or Peru. Either way, it’s now quite at home in our California beanfields. It is is also known as Canario or Peruano bean and is a common ingredient in Mexican soups and side dishes.
