canary beans

What the heck are Canary Beans, we got them in the market the other day they dont look like beans, but I wonder how you prepare them. Any suggestion are welcome.

It's always fun to try something completely new at the market. Here's a recipe that I saw on a blog for canary beans - enjoy!

My mother always made a bean soup in Colombia called Green Bean Soup. The type of beans she used however, are not the type of green beans available in the USA. I tried to find the beans here for the longest time but I couldn’t find them anywhere.

While grocery shopping with my sister, I noticed some canary beans. I showed them to her and she thought that they looked pretty similar to the ones our mom would use in her Green Bean Soup, just not green So, I bought some and made the soup. Since I haven’t had Colombian green beans in a while and therefore may not recall the flavor, I wanted my sister to try the soup, as she recently lived in Colombia. I was so happy when I heard her say, “Yes, they are the same”. Well, actually she said “Si, son los mismos”. Anyway, I made the soup the same way my mom used to make it and it was fantastic!
