Cranberry bean (Roman, October): The cranberry bean is medium‐sized, oval, and creamy white with red speckles and streaks with an earthy flavor. It is often used in Italian dishes.
Great northern bean: Great northern beans are large, oblong‐shaped, and plump with a white skin. They are popular throughout North America and bring a slightly nutty flavor to dishes. They cook to a soft texture and are particularly useful for soups and casseroles. Great northern beans are frequently served mixed with pintos and can even be substituted for the smaller navy bean in any recipe.
Red kidney bean (light and dark): The name of the kidney bean is derived from its shape. Whether light red or dark red, their large size and bright color make them a valuable addition to nearly any bean dish. Their flavor is full, and their texture is soft. Even though the thicker skins of kidney beans may require increased cooking time, they retain their original shape even when cooked in dishes that require a long‐simmering time. Perhaps most popular in chili con carne and red beans and rice, kidney beans can always be found in a variety of dishes including soups, salads, sandwiches, and dip.
