These pretty piebald beans really do look like little snow-capped mountains, with rich tan hues dusted with white. They’re similar in size to kidney beans, and have a velvety texture and potato-like flavor, making them ideal for hearty stews, casseroles, and cozy winter fare. Though their origins are in Peru, they spread quickly throughout South and Central America, and then all the way to Europe and the USA.
