Broad Bean (Vicia faba)
A hardy Quebec variety! Tender green kernels, packed with protein
🫘Gourgane: the queen of legumes! Commonly known as the Lima bean due to its South American origins, the gourgane is the Quebecois name from the Saguenay–Lac-Saint-Jean region. This generous bean is a true nutritional powerhouse, packed with protein and essential nutrients. The pods are harvested while green and still closed, and it’s the beans inside that are eaten. Very hardy, this plant is perfectly suited to the Quebec climate. 🌿 🍴 Try it, and you’ll fall in love!
Les gousses se récoltent vertes et encore fermées, et ce sont les fèves à l’intérieur qui sont consommées. Très rustique, cette plante est parfaitement adaptée au climat québécois. 🌿
🍴 Essayez-la et vous l’adopterez !
