Shironata Mame -Canavalia gladiata
This tropical Japanese cultivated bean is only harvested when the pods are young and tender. The dense, glossy green pods are flat, have a ridged edge, and taste like snap beans. Large vines grow quickly and should be trellised.
Culinary tips: Prepare young beans as you would green beans and thoroughly cook. Delicious steamed and in stir-fries.
