About Great northern bean
Great northern beans are a variety of white bean, usually sold dried or canned. They are used in soups, stews, casseroles and bean salads, where their mild flavour takes on the surrounding seasonings. The dried beans are typically medium-sized, oval and ivory-white; once cooked, they become tender and creamy while often holding their shape.
Dried beans need cooking before eating, while canned beans are already cooked and packed in liquid. Cooking time and final texture vary with age, soaking and preparation. Canned beans may be salted or otherwise seasoned, so they are not identical to plain cooked dried beans. The variety should not be confused with all white beans as a general category.
