A larger, rounder, creamy white bean with a mild flavour, perfect for salads and stews, and a must for cassoulet. An excellent source of fiber and zinc. A good source of protein, thiamin B1, and magnesium. Soak overnight, rinse and discard the soaking water. Simmer the beans in fresh water for an hour and a half or until tender. Adding a strip of kombu to the water will help break down the enzymes which can make beans difficult to digest.

Great northern beans are often confused with cannellini (white kidney beans) and they can be substituted one for the other in most recipes, but great northern beans are more delicate and therefore best consumed directly, or used as an ingredient in baking. They are lighter and able to reach a creamy consistency. Click here for recipes that highlight this bean's best.
