#orcabeans

Apparently beans in the same pod grow as twins???? ((You know how when you open a bean pod, there's usually one on each half of the pod?)) I wouldn't have even thought of that if these weren't Orca Beans (because you can see the pattern), that's so cool?? Also, this handful I picked have more black spots than the first batch, finally!! ⚪⚫⚪⚫ #gardening #harvest #beans #orcabeans #calypsobeans #plants #biology #plantbiology https://www.instagram.com/p/CCpQ64cgCpF/?igshid=lfrmo9mlzns2

Some of the beans I planted are ready! I was clearing up some of the fallen leaves and knocked off some bean pods so I picked the ones that were already dry. The bean plants are all starting to reach the end of their life, but it's not even, so there are still a lot of green leaves and pods on most of them. These ones were orca beans (which ended up a lot more white than I expected, most I planted were 50/50 white and black) and Peruvian beans/canary beans (which are supposed to be yELLOW and came out almost white!!! Boo...) ⚪⚫⚪⚫ #beans #harvest #gardening #orcabeans #peruvianbeans #canarybeans https://www.instagram.com/p/CCcjT-sAdV7/?igshid=utkykrsvote3

#daldivas - had a ‘whale’ of a time creating this particular dal. Literally! Heirloom #orcabeans and #belugalentils cooked down to almost a hearty #chilli like consistency with #onions, #garlic, #garammasala #blackcardamom and wait for it.. #smokedpaprika and #anchochile powder for a deep smoky flavor. Paired here with #tortilla chips and fresh #salsa . Thanks @rushinamg for the opportunity to be part of this exciting event. #lovemydal

A classic #punjabi favorite for #dinner - #rajmachawal - except that the beans I used were #heirloom #orcabeans from @bobsredmill . They cook to perfection easily once rehydrated overnight and the end result is a hearty #chilli like stew that pairs perfectly with #rice or #tortillas #glutenfree , #vegan (if you used oil instead of butter)
