{"product_id":"flor-de-junio-silvia","title":"Flor de Junio Bean","description":"\u003cdiv style=\"text-align: left;\"\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlor de Junio (or \u003cem\u003eJune Flower\u003c\/em\u003e) are one of the most sought after beans in Michoacan, a state that knows its beans. Both Flor de Mayo (with its decorative spots) and Flor de Junio (with its decorative pink swirls) are preferred over pintos and blacks. I think the food in the region is second to none, especially if you can find some traditional Purepecha indigenous dishes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe bean itself stays whole but you bite into and it seems to melt in your mouth with creamy bean goodness. And yet it's as light as the wings of a migrating Monarch butterfly! (They go down to Michoacan, you know.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe problem with these beans is that they don't age well. If you store it in a dark cool pantry you will be fine, but we have a limited amount so we think of the Flor de Junio like \u003cem\u003eNouveau Beaujolais\u003c\/em\u003e, ramps, figs or some other seasonal treat. Enjoy them now while you can!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis crop is from California. If you've previously enjoyed Silvia beans, this is virtually the same variety. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCooking suggestions: Use in soups, stews, pot beans, or refried beans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLatin name: \u003cem\u003ePhaseolus vulgaris\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003eProduction: U.S.A. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Rancho Gordo","offers":[{"title":"1 Lb Bag","offer_id":2570821699,"sku":"FJUN-1","price":7.5,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0685\/2511\/files\/flor-de-junio-bean-5320326.jpg?v=1763429669","url":"https:\/\/www.ranchogordo.pro\/products\/flor-de-junio-silvia","provider":"Rancho Gordo","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
