Bianco di Spagna Style Large White

A tier

Bianco di Spagna–style beans are very large flat white runners/limas-adjacent in look but often common-bean trade whites used in Italian cooking for impressive size—butter-tender when cooked. They star in salads and slow braises. Gentle simmer; dress with tuna or bitter greens as in Italian contorni. Size means longer hydration. A luxury white bean experience.
