Scarlet Runner Kidney Beans

Scarlet Runner Kidney Beans

Pull the fibrous thread, open up the bean pod and find the inspiring colours of the kidney beans that lie within.  Even the white spot where the bean was attached to the shell is interesting to the eye.  Funky scarlet beans make me want to sponge paint a royal purple on hot pink.

Small beans can be eaten with the skin when they are still tender.
Larger beans have tough skin with fibrous threads.
Let them grow and the fibrous threads function like a string that opens up the pod.
