Regina Phaseolus Beans

Sarconi Beans Regina Ciuoto

The Regina or Ciuoto Bean from Sarconi IGP is the most well-known due to its name.

It is said to have been the variety most appreciated by the Queen during the Bourbon reign, but another story suggests that since it was the most common bean in Sarconi, it was called "ciuoto" or foolish, due to its versatility in the kitchen.

It has a small oval shape with a white base and red, wine-colored streaks. After cooking, the skin is almost non-existent. It is part of the borlotto ecotypes. Suitable for bean pasta.
