Garbanzo Shelling Beans
Grower: Flora Bella Organics
Seasons/Availability: Late Spring into Summer
Description/Taste: Encased in a light colored paper-like shell, fresh garbanzo beans, also called chickpeas, offer a delectable trace of sweetness and a wonderful tender texture. Not yet crinkly in this early stage of life, these farm-fresh delights vary from a very pale green to dark green. Easy to shell, two to three beans are produced in each pod.
