For too long in the UK beans were thought of as dreary hippy fodder, but they’ve undergone a radical image makeover. At long last they are being recognized for their brilliant versatility as well as for being truly delicious and nutritious – something that has been known in Europe for years. One of the healthiest and most sustainable of foods, they help with meat reduction by providing a cheap source of plant protein and at the same time aid soil health, one of the most pressing issues in farming today
The book contains 80+ recipes divided into the following chapters:
• Beans on Toast
• Bean Snacks and Share Plates
• Hearty Salads
• Bean Bowls
• Soup Beans
• Bean Feasts
The majority will be written by the Bold Bean team, but in keeping with their community-driven growth they plan to include at least 20 recipes from guest writers, the influencers who’ve been their greatest supporters so far – including Ben Lebus of MOB and Melissa Hemsley. Appealing to vegans, vegetarians and flexitarians, they are recipes offering guaranteed heartiness, protein and satisfaction – with reduced carbs too, if that’s your thing.
