I was a member of the Rancho Gordo bean club for over 5 years and recently made the switch to Primary Beans because I want organic heirlooms, and I want to support US organic farmers who are highlighted for their work. Also Primary Beans' marketing is fun and I actually want to cook their recipes. Great work! I just got my first box and was stunned by the quality and flavor of the flageolets. They're gorgeous! That said, I am struggling to see the value of bean club -- I could have ordered more than 3lbs of beans from the store + the pantry item for quite a bit less than $50. Maybe I'm spoiled by the sheer amount of goodies in the Rancho Gordo bean club boxes. In comparison, this box just doesn't stack up in terms of value. I'd like to see at least another 1lb of beans in each box to justify the price.
These were the best things we cooked yet! Smooth and sweet
Loved the mayocoba beans!
After finally slow-cooking last year’s chickpeas, I found myself craving more. I ordered multiple packages. They are sweet, versatile and scrumptious. I add them to soups, pestos, polentas, and like them on their own with a bit of salt, oil and parsley. I am so glad you offer them.
