Description

🌾  Yellow Beans

Kenyan yellow beans, often known locally as “Kathika,” are a highly-prized legume, popular for their unique taste, texture, and cooking properties.

  • Appearance: They have a distinct, bright golden-yellow color and a smooth, oval shape.
  • Taste and Texture: When cooked, they have a rich, slightly sweet flavor and a creamy, smooth texture that is less “mealy” than other bean varieties.
  • Culinary Uses: They are incredibly versatile and a staple in many Kenyan households. The most common way to prepare them is in a stew, often cooked with tomatoes, onions, garlic, and spices like coriander. They are also used in traditional dishes like Githeri (a mix of maize and beans), soups, and salads.
  • Key Feature: A significant reason for their popularity is that they are widely considered to be “gas-free,” meaning they are easier to digest and cause less bloating compared to other bean types.
