Hints

These beans are best known when they're covered in tomato sauce: Baked Beans.

If bought dried, must be soaked and cooked prior to use to remove toxins. Haricot beans are also sometimes known as navy beans because of their extensive use at sea by the British Navy.

Dried haricot beans must be soaked in water for at least 5 hours and then drained. Place the beans in a saucepan and cover with water, boil vigourously for 10-12 minutes.

They can then be used in other recipes. If being served as a vegetable dish on their own, they'll need to be simmered for another 1 to 1.5 hours until tender.
