Dry Beans, Ireland Creek Annie, 12 oz/341g bag
The grower of these beans, Jordan Marr, lists Ireland Creek Annie as one of his favourites because of its flavour and creaminess. It's an old english heirloom bean that was brought to BC in the early 20th century.
A 12 oz portion of dry beans becomes 5-6 cups when cooked.
Produced by farmer Jordan Marr of Unearthed Heirloom Beans. Please note that Jordan grew these on a new property in 2026 and has not yet re-applied for organic certification. His growing practices haven't otherwise changed.
These beans do not need soaking overnight, because they're fresh! Jordan's favoured method: put your dry beans in a dutch oven or other oven-safe pot, cover with 2-3 inches of water or stock, optionally add herbs and/or pork, bring to simmer on stove, then cover and place in a 350F oven for 1.5 to 3 hours until fork tender. For no fuss, salt them at the outset; to satisfy the purists, salt them halfway through instead. Yum!
