Welcome to Celtnet's Beans Recipes Page — This is a continuation of an entire series of pages that will, I hope, allow my visitors to better navigate this site. As well as displaying recipes by name, country and region of origin I am now planning a whole series of pages where recipes can be located by meal type and main ingredient. This page gives a listing of all the bean recipes added to this site. I am defining 'beans' very broadly as classic benans (canellini, pinto, black beans etc) and also pulses (lentils, peas etc)...
Here you will find a whole range of recipes incorporating beans from the ancient world to modern times. Just about every civilization and culture has recipes using beans as they can be dried and stored over winter. Beans are also a survival food and an excellent source of protein in conjunction with staples such as maize, wheat, barley, millet etc. For this reason many of the bean recipes given originate in Africa and South America, though I have bean and bean-assoicated recipes listed here from all corners of the globe. |
