JACOBS CATTLE / TROUT

Description:

Vibrantly colored and tasty as well, Jacobs Cattle beans are an Heirloom bean related to the Kidney bean.  These brightly patterned bean seeds were handed down within a small community for several generations.  Jacobs Cattle beans are slim, shiny and white with splashes of deep maroon; resembling the hide of spotted Hereford cattle. The bean is about 5/8" long, with a plump kidney shape, earthy flavor and sweet, mealy texture.  Renowned for its baking qualities, Jacobs Cattle beans are good in salads or on their own as a side dish.  This bean may also be referred to as a Trout Bean, Dalmatian bean, and Torellen.  Jacobs Cattle can be substituted for any bean in the haricot family.

Suggested Use:

Commonly used in baked bean dishes, they are delicious served in stews, casseroles, and soups.  Simply tossing the cooked beans with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and fresh herbs makes a flavorful dish or salad.
