Black beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) are a nutritious, small-seeded legume with a dense, meaty texture and an earthy, slightly sweet flavor. They are a staple across Latin American, Caribbean, Indian, and Southeast Asian cuisines and valued for their high protein, dietary fiber, and micronutrient content. Our black beans are carefully cleaned, graded, and packed to preserve color, texture, and nutritional value.

Application
Black beans are extremely versatile in both industrial and household kitchens. They are widely used in canned and ready-to-eat meals, soups, stews, burritos, salads, and vegetarian protein formulations. Food processors use them in plant-based patties, dips, and purees; bakeries incorporate bean flours for gluten-free and high-protein products. In addition, black beans are popular in traditional dishes such as feijoada, rice-and-beans preparations, dals, and chana-style curries, providing nutrition and body to savory recipes.
Storage Condition
Store in clean, dry, pest-free warehouses with good ventilation. Recommended storage environment: relative humidity ≤ 65% and temperature ≤ 20°C. Protect from direct sunlight and strong odors; use FIFO (first in, first out) to maintain freshness and minimize quality deterioration.
