	Product Info: Haricot Tarbais is the traditional bean used in France for cassoulet. This oven braised stew of sausage, meat and beans is traditional winter fare. These beans come from a small village in the south of France named Tarbais, although their origin was the New World, pre-sixteenth century. Haricot Tarbais are a type of pole bean. The beans are planted at the same time as corn. This enables the corn stalk to act as the pole for the beans. Once the beans are fully mature they must be harvested. However, since they are entangled in corn they must be harvested by hand. This labor-intensive process happens in early September every year. Tarbais Beans have a very thin skin and a subtle taste. Suggested Use: Cooked Tarbais Beans, tossed with lemon and fresh herbs, is a delightful companion dish to fish, meat or poultry. This bean is a classic for French cassoulets of lamb and vegetables. Ingredients: Tarbais Beans Basic Preparations: Soak overnight. Rinse and place in a large pot and cover with fresh water. Bring water to a boil, reduce heat and simmer, covered, for 45 minutes until tender. One cup dry yields 2-1/2 cups cooked.
