Borlotti Beans, also known as Cranberry Beans, are an off-white bean with distinct red markings. Dried Borlotti Beans can be soaked overnight and the simmered under water or stock with vegetables and or meats. When cooked the beans will lose some of their bright markings and turn a light brown color. Their meaty, chestnut flavor make borlotti a wonderful main dish and a perfect side dish. Not particularly sweet, the beans can be tossed in a cold bean salad and topped with your choice of spices.
