Discover the kidney bean

Kidney beans are a popular staple food in Ukraine, often used in hearty soups and stews such as borscht and chili. They have a mild, nutty flavor and a soft texture when cooked, and are a good source of protein, fiber, and other essential nutrients.

In Ukraine, kidney beans are often purchased dried and then soaked and cooked before use in recipes. They are also commonly used in vegetarian and vegan cooking as a meat substitute.
