    Don’t have much experience with beans, but I quite like black turtle beans. Still struggling with making them, though. The canned beans often fall apart and I haven’t yet tried with dried beans, as those are quite the commitment to prepare. 😅

        Well, the black turtle bean specifically has a hard ‘shell’, so you use it when you don’t want the beans falling apart, like in burritos or salads.

        That’s also part of the reason why I think they’re neat, they just look damn aesthetic:

        But interesting point nonetheless. I have been trying them in tomato sauce, and maybe the hard shell is holding them back in that case…
