Flavors of the Lingot White Bean

The Lingot white bean stands out for its creamy texture and slightly mealy taste. Raw, its taste is relatively neutral, but once cooked, it blends and takes on the flavor of the accompanying ingredients and spices.

How to Use White Beans in Cooking?

Often used for cassoulet preparation, the white bean pairs perfectly in various soups and stews, as well as to accompany cold salads.

How to Cook the Lingot White Bean?
