The Rattlesnake Bean: A Unique Taste and a Fascinating History!

Discover the Rattlesnake bean, an ancient and fascinating variety whose name origin is debated: some attribute it to the rattling sound of the seeds in the dried pods, others to the purple markings on the pods resembling the skin of a rattlesnake. However, everyone agrees on its exceptional taste of sage and nuts, with fruity accents. Imagine savoring beans with a unique aroma, steeped in history and tradition!

The smooth, curved, semi-oval beans are delicious. Stringless beans are particularly appreciated when picked young and eaten with the pod. The shape of the pods can vary from slightly to extremely curved, and their length can reach 20 cm. The beans, initially ivory white, then become speckled with beige and brown. Rattlesnake is a variety traditionally cultivated by the Hopi Indians of North America. Its very productive vines grow vigorously and can reach 3 m in length.
