Great Northern Beans
Varieties
Like the smaller navy bean, Great Northern beans are related to kidney beans and pinto beans. Most Great Northern beans eaten in the United States are grown in the Midwest.
Preparation, Uses, & Tips
Before cooking, soak the beans for 8 hours and pressure cook for 20 minutes, or simmer on the stove for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. After cooking with savory spices, Great Northern beans can be puréed into a delicious soup, sauce, or pâté. 1 cup of dried Great Northern beans yields approximately 2 1/2 cups of cooked beans.
