Top-notch Leftovers: Cranberry Beans (Borlotti), hominy (posole), brocollini with bean broth and stock, all waiting in my fridge for something to happen, and it did! Lemon zest courtesy of my Meyers lemon tree. Life can be really delicious without even trying sometimes!

We all know the first rule of Bean Club: You never shut up about Bean Club.
My kid has proposed a second rule of Bean Club: Thereβs no such thing as too many beans.

We are smitten with our Sunrise lentils. Their flavor is hard to pin downβearthy, yet gentle, if that makes sense. We can't get enough of this stew with Sunrise lentils, lemon, and dill. Lemon and lentils are always a winning combination!

We are celebrating our 25th year in business by opening our new store at 1350 Main St. in Napa. The symbolism of beans arriving on Main Street is not lost on us. To celebrate we contracted Signs by Dylan (@signsbydylan) to add a touch of permanence and artistry to our windows.

Can a chili be considered a stew? We think so! Our good friends at Burlap & Barrel (@burlapandbarrel) shared this vegetarian chili recipe featuring red lentils and Domingo Rojo beans, with a golden cornbread topping. Photo credit: Burlap & Barrel

Our Pardina lentils have a mellow, balanced flavor and hold their shape beautifully when cooked, making them ideal for rustic stews and salads. Here, theyβre combined with caramelized leeks and onions, tender chunks of sweet potato, and a splash of vinegar to finish.

We've been enjoying Anna Ansari's (@thisplacetastesdelicious) new book, Silk Roads: A Flavor Odyssey with Recipes from Baku to Beijing. This warm yogurt-and-chickpea soup is, according to Ansari, "weird and wonderful, and kind of a game-changer." Photo credit: Laura Edwards (@laurajayneedwards).

Sylwia Vaclavek (@sylwiavaclavekphotography) shared this Polish White Bean Soup featuring our Marcella beans and the classic layers of flavor found in Polish home cooking. If you don't have Marcellas on hand, any of our white beans would work beautifully here.

Cabbage and beans may not be the most glamorous duo, but they have a lot of chemistry! We gave this hearty soup a flavor boost with a spoonful of miso and a drizzle of chile oil.

Idilio-Willie Colon
Iβm so sorry to hear of his death. He was one of my favorites. I came to salsa in the 1980s, a little late but Willie was constantly making great music. He was called El Malo, but there was such elegance to his music, especially when he did his trombone solos
