In Caribbean cuisine, lima beans, often called 'butter beans,' are a key ingredient in hearty soups and stews, frequently paired with root vegetables like yams and plantains, and seasoned with thyme, scotch bonnet peppers, and coconut milk. In Latin American cooking, lima beans are used in dishes like 'menestrón' (a hearty vegetable soup) and are often served as a side dish with rice and meat. For a simple and delicious meal, try soaking the lima beans overnight, then simmering them with diced ham, onions, garlic, and your favorite herbs until tender.
