I think the more moist version is more me than the crispy finish. I did have flageolet beans with the roast, but simply boiled then topped with fresh butter. Will be keeping in mind to roast beans with meat for next time. Wow, wish I had read this before I did my roast last weekend….. it sounds delicious.

If you were doing that now I'd be worried. Good luck getting moved this week! Jen, I think a lot of kids go through a ketchup phase. If you were doing that now I’d be worried.

My mom says I used to eat them with ketchup, the thought of which sort of horrifies me now... I'll definitely be giving this a try soon (I am back to the bay area and its produce-y goodness for good on Thursday! woo hoo!) I love lima beans, and have ever since I was a kid.

They usually break open and become waterlogged during cooking muting the flavor. IMO, frozen is the best alternative. I grew beans out in the Hamptons with little success. I blame it on the sandy soil. Denise, You know I usually like dried beans, but I’ve never been able to find quality small limas dried.

Thanks. I can't even recall the last time I ate lima beans. We tried growing Christmas limas last year, but they mustn't have been very fond of West Marin. They never really took off like our Scarlett Runners did (they made a gorgeous bean teepee). If you gave frozen beans a try and they worked, I'm game. This looks like fun, good simple fun! Thanks.
