Dry Kidney Beans

Hearty and nutritious, dry kidney beans boast a robust, earthy flavor and a satisfyingly firm texture when cooked just right. Their vibrant red-burgundy hue adds a pop of color to any dish.

Peaches

Peaches are a juicy, sweet fruit with a velvety skin that ranges from yellow to red, depending on the variety. Originating in China, they have been cultivated for thousands of years and are now enjoyed worldwide. Their flavor profile is a delightful balance of sweet and tart, with an aromatic fragrance that intensifies when ripe. The texture of a peach is soft and succulent, with a juicy flesh that clings to a single, large pit. When cooking with peaches, they behave well in both raw and cooked applications, breaking down into a luscious compote or maintaining their shape when quickly sautéed or grilled. They are versatile enough to be used in both savory and sweet dishes, though they are most commonly associated with desserts due to their natural sweetness.
