Camellia Brand Large Lima Beans (15 0 oz)

Camellia Brand Large Lima Beans are a delightful addition to any pantry, offering a creamy texture and delicate flavor that elevates a variety of dishes. This 15 oz bag is packed with premium quality large lima beans, also known as butter beans, prized for their versatility and nutritional benefits. These beans are wonderful in soups, stews, casseroles, and succotash, a classic dish combining lima beans and corn. They can also be enjoyed as a simple side dish, seasoned with herbs and spices. To prepare, rinse the beans thoroughly and soak them for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to soften them and reduce cooking time. For a quicker option, use the quick-soak method: boil the beans for 2 minutes, then let them sit for an hour before draining and cooking. After soaking, simmer the beans in fresh water or broth with your favorite seasonings. Consider adding bacon, ham hocks, or smoked turkey for a richer flavor. Cooking time will vary depending on the soaking method and desired consistency, typically ranging from 1 to 1.5 hours. Large lima beans are not only delicious but also a good source of plant-based protein, fiber, iron, and folate. They are also relatively low in calories and fat, making them a healthy and satisfying choice. Customers love Camellia Brand Large Lima Beans for their consistent quality and creamy texture, which adds a touch of elegance to any meal. They are particularly popular in Southern cuisine, where lima beans are a staple ingredient in many traditional dishes. Store in a cool, dry place to maintain their freshness and quality.
