About Flageolet bean

A flageolet bean is a small, pale green bean used as a pulse, sold dried or already cooked. Dried beans are simmered until tender; cooked beans can be used directly in salads, soups and other savoury preparations.

The bean is typically kidney-shaped, with a mild flavour and a soft, creamy texture after cooking. Its green colour may become less vivid during cooking or storage. Packaged cooked forms can differ from dried beans in water content and may contain added salt or other ingredients.
