Cannellini Beans 1 article

Cannellini beans are large white kidney beans associated with Italian cooking and prized for a creamy interior that still holds together in salads and soups. They appear in minestrone, Tuscan-style bean dishes, white-bean soups, greens-and-beans combinations, and mashed spreads. Both canned and dried forms are common. Their larger oval shape separates them from small navy beans, while their white color and mild flavor distinguish them from red kidney or black beans.
