Valles Andinos Chochos Lupini Beans Net.Wt 14 oz

Good quality Lupini Beans, would order again. Just be careful if it's your first time making them as they are tricky to cook without knowing proper technique.

I bought this beans because a friend told me that it has the most amount of calcium. The problem is that it does not indicate the danger of being toxic, if you don’t know how to prepare it. I am glad that i googled it before cooking it. It said that you need to soak it for 10 to 12 days, changing the water and in between boil it and place it back in the water and if you do not do these steps correctly, it would be extremely toxic. So, i decided not to deal with it. But i wanted to share this information, which this had to be mentioned in bold for people to know.

These beens are too small. I have never seen lupinis this small before. I was surprised when I soaked them and they never grew to the right size. I have been eating lupini beans my whole life. My family is from the Mediterranean where its a regular snack food. I am used to lupinis that are almost the size of lima beans but these are not them. These are the size of peas. I won't buy these again.

product is great, shipping and handling is too expensive 16+ dollars

too bitter, not recommended
