Sources and commentaries

In most languages, the name for 'bean' is used without any qualifier for dry beans. Very often, it is qualified by a form or a colour (white, red, black, brown...), according to the local preferences. MC

(1) Kidney beans have the form of a kidney, i.e. more or less cylindrical with the hilum in a concavity in the middle.

(2) Pea beans are oblong or rounded.

(3) Shell beans are marketed in their shell, but only the fresh mature seed is eaten. Each country has its preferred cultivar, namely 'Cranberry' in the USA, 'Borlotto' in Italy and 'Coco de Paimpol' in France. MC

(4) Flageolet beans are a French specialty, usually sold fresh or processed. They have a light green colour and are very soft. MC
