Organic Sunrise Beans
1 pound of certified organic heirloom Sunrise beans grown on our farm in San Gregorio, CA. The Sunrise bean was developed by the University of California — Davis as a non-GMO cross between Zuni Gold beans and a proprietary pink bean seed. Typically, this sort of cross-breeding takes place in the pursuit of a deliciously flavorful bean that also has high yields and disease resistance, making it easier for farmers to grow a successful crop!

BASIC DRY BEAN COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
Rinse beans and check for debris. In a large pot, cook aromatic vegetables of your choice (onions, garlic, celery, leeks, carrots, etc.) in olive oil. Add the beans and enough water to cover by a few inches. Bring to a full boil for 10 minutes, then reduce to a gentle simmer. Gently cook until soft but not falling apart. Cooking time depends on the bean, typically 1 to 3 hours. Salt when the beans start to soften. Pre-soaking the beans for 2 to 6 hours will reduce the cooking time. Enjoy! -
