Description
Classic Italian cannellini beans grown organically in Umbria, valued for their creamy interior and clean structure. These are pantry staples done properly, with integrity from field to bag.
Craft & Origin
Viola grows these cannellini beans as part of a broader farm system rooted in organic and biodynamic practices. Legumes are central to their approach, supporting soil health through natural nitrogen fixation and long crop rotations. The beans are harvested at full maturity, dried slowly, and carefully sorted to preserve quality and consistency. This is traditional Umbrian agriculture focused on flavor, not yield.
Flavor & Texture
Mild and balanced with a gentle nuttiness. Creamy inside while holding their shape after cooking.
How to Use
Ideal for pasta e fagioli, minestrone, bean salads, purées, and simple simmered preparations finished with good olive oil.
Why We Like It
When cannellini are grown and handled with care, they stop being filler and become the dish.
