Also known as the black turtle bean. The name “turtle bean” comes from the legume’s hard shell.

Product meets or exceeds USDA guidelines. While the most modern equipment and standards are used when cleaning, processing, and packing this product, the contents of this bag are a natural product grown in the earth. It is not always possible to remove all foreign material. Please sort and rinse thoroughly before cooking. Directions
Cooking: Sort through beans, discarding any stones, debris, or malformed beans. Rinse in a colander. Soak overnight or about 6–8 hours in warm water, using at least 3 cups of water for every cup of beans. Drain. Boil enough water to cover beans by at least 1 inch (use the soak water or fresh). Add beans to boiling water. Bring to a boil and simmer until tender, adding more water if necessary. Season to taste. Sprouting: Sort, soak, and drain as directed above. Place in a roomy container, such as a quart or gallon jar. Cover with a loose woven fabric, nylon stocking, or mesh secured down by elastic or a rubber band. Rinse and thoroughly drain 2–3 times daily until sprouts reach desired length. Swish out seed caps in a basin of water if desired. Sprouting legumes until roots form decreases cooking time. Sprouting them to the two-leaf stage is said to bring them to the peak of their nutritional value.
