Product Description
Popular in the Mediterranean region of Europe, lupini beans are often found at Italian fairs and as an appetizer at Spanish beer halls. In the past, lupins were rarely used as a grain food due to the bitter taste from the high alkaloid content of the bean. Over the last 30 years a strain with reduced alkaloid content called 'sweet' lupins was developed. This 'sweet' strain still requires soaking and extended cooking to remove the alkaloids, but well worth the effort. The lupins family of the grain legumes are one of the highest in protein content, second only to soy beans, and have a sweet flavor and a firm texture. This very versatile bean can be served seperately, cooked or just chilled and lightly salted as a snack. Use them in cold or hot salads as they are especially delicious tossed with endive with a fresh herb vinaigrette
