What goes with Borlotti Bean?
Borlotti beans have a substantial creamy centre and a skin that becomes tender during cooking. Their coloured markings fade, leaving a quieter appearance than the raw pod or dried bean suggests. The broth is part of their culinary value: suspended bean solids give it body and a rounded pulse flavour.

Pairing principles
What pairs well with Borlotti Bean?
With pasta, use the bean broth to connect the ingredients rather than relying entirely on added cream or oil. Woody herbs need restrained extraction so they do not replace the bean aroma. A fresh leafy or acidic element can interrupt an otherwise continuous combination of soft beans and starch.
