I’ve followed this small UK brand for a long time and I love what they do so I was delighted to see they’ve now launched in Ireland!
They slow cook their beans, so the texture is so creamy, and they’re jarred as is in their bean stock. So they are a really good quality product and alongside that they’re a B Corp company, and they use glass packaging so you can see why these beans would cost more to manufacture than standard tinned beans.
So here’s my clever swap tip: when the beans are the star of the show in your dish, like in a salad, these are gorgeous to use for the taste and texture! If you’re blitzing beans into a soup or you’re putting them into a slow cooked stew, the tinned ones are grand to use and more accessible from a cost point of view.
What I really love though and wanted to point out here is that more and more small, values-led brands are now getting shelf space on our big supermarket shelves. We don’t want every product on those shelves coming from big multinationals where profit is the only driver. More shelf space for brands that care about quality and sustainability is only a good thing for our food environment.
What are your thoughts? I’d love to hear in the comments!
