Romano Beans
Romano beans are also known as Borlotti beans. This bean is 4-7" long and the entire pod is edible. These beans are vailable in both green and gold. They make for excellent in soups and stews or are often simply steamed. Like other snap beans, romano beans are supposed to be eaten whole. They are considered ripe when they make a crisp “snap” if they are broken in half, and they have a very mild flavor and a tender texture.
