In a few words

These beans were in the TOP 10 most imported products in 2015. The best time to consume them is during spring and summer. Broad beans have a lively and bright green color, and should have a regular appearance and not be too hard to touch. Other tricks to guess the quality of the product is that its grains should not appear very marked.
