Organic Black Beans are a type of a common bean that originated in America. Today it's one of the most popular ingredients in Latin American and Indian cuisine. Dishes like frijoles negros, Moros y Cristianos, Gallo Pinto, and maa ki daal are the favorites of many specialty restaurants all over the planet and trademarks of their countries.

Organic Black Beans from Food To Live® give you a chance to enjoy the delicious flavor of this amazing food as well as the health benefits it offers.

However, be careful when you explore recipes for exotic dishes as not all black beans are turtle beans. This name is also associated with vigna mungo (lentil) and douchi (fermented soybean).

Black Beans Nutrition Value

Black turtle beans are good for you because they provide your body with a wide range of important nutrients, such as:

Health Benefits of Eating Black Turtle Beans

The most important benefits organic black bean seeds offer are:

* Improved digestion.
As they contain lots of dietary fiber (7g per serving) the beans help keep your intestine toned.
* Improved blood sugar control.
The combination of carbohydrates and fiber is processed steadily and slowly by the body, which means it doesn't trigger dangerous blood glucose spikes.
* Protection from oxidation.
Our organic black bean seeds are rich in antioxidants that protect your body from the damage of free radicals on the cellular level.

How to Prepare Black Turtle Beans

To prepare turtle beans properly, you should soak them overnight. After this, you can cook them like any bean by bringing to a boil and simmering until they are soft. You can also bake them after soaking.

If you don't have the time necessary for such preparation, you can soak the beans in a pan, bring it to a boil, and leave to soak for an hour. After this, you can cook or bake them as usual. Using a pressure cooker is the fastest method of preparation.

With the seeds cooked, you will be able to use them in a great number of black turtle bean recipes. Even your dogs can enjoy them. However, if you plan to feed them to your pets, don't add any spices.

Try making some nutritious black bean soup or delicious brownies. This ingredient will also help you create fantastic salsa, burgers, and hummus. Some bean salad and dip will be great options for parties.
