  • Good year for drying beans

    I'm usually drying off beans indoors on the window sills towards the end of September. This year most are nearly there

      They look great Scarlet. I hope mine are that good. Three varieties and they're mostly still growing - a long way off going crispy yet.

        Can all beans- Runner and French- be dried and used for cooking?

          Yes, you can use them all. My kids don't like the really big beans whole though mashed up to make a houmous they eat the lot.

          This thread is fab for dried bean recipes....

              Yes you can dry and use any bean for cooking but first please read this thread about cooking them to destroy the toxins, the thread also has some good recipes :-

                Yes, my harvests are at least a month early too

                I had the first (only a handful though) dry kidney beans a month ago
