Saving and drying all the beans that I never got round to picking 😅

It’s a great way to preserve your harvest for future use!

My beans grew like crazy this year and I really struggled to keep on top of them. So I’ve been letting them dry on the plant! I’m picking them only when they’re brown and leathery/crispy.

I’m mostly saving for replanting next year but I’m thinking of adding some to soups/casseroles etc.

I’ve never actually saved beans before so this is all totally new to me! I didn’t grow runner or French beans with the intent of eating them dried, I usually pick when young.

From what I’ve read online they should be ok, as long as I boil them for 30 minutes first?

What’s your favourite bean variety to dry and eat over winter? As I may take that into account when choosing varieties for next year 🌱🫘
