Romano Beans
Romano beans, also known as Italian flat beans or "pole beans," are a broad, flat, and meaty variety of green bean. Unlike the slender French or snap beans, Romano beans have a slightly more fibrous texture and deeper, richer flavor—often described as nutty or earthy. They can be green, yellow, or even purple, and are known for holding up well to long, slow cooking, making them a favorite in Mediterranean and Southern cuisines.
