Lardari beans are a traditional Italian bean variety with a creamy texture, delicate flavour and naturally hearty character.

Ideal for rustic Mediterranean cooking, they work beautifully in soups, stews, salads, pasta dishes and slow-cooked recipes. Their mild flavour pairs well with extra virgin olive oil, garlic, herbs, tomato, vegetables, sausage, pancetta and leafy greens.

A versatile pantry ingredient for traditional Italian dishes, restaurants, delis and quality home cooking.

Serving suggestion:

Soak before cooking, then simmer until tender. Serve warm with olive oil and herbs, add to soups and stews, or use in bean salads, pasta e fagioli and rustic vegetable dishes.
