Foodie Delight Pretzel Bean (Vigna unguiculata subsp.) cowpea

Description

Vigorous twining vines are a plus for gardens with limited space. As easy to grow as standard beans and not bothered by bean beetles. Successful in high temperatures, drought and poor soils. Very productive in more favorable conditions. Pick young green pods as snap beans, harvest green peas as shelly beans or peas, and let pods dry for dry beans. Soak in water and cook like normal beans only with more nutrients. Cowpeas need warm, well-drained soil and at least 6 -8 hours of full sun.

These specialized herbs and vegetables are now being used by creative cooks everywhere! Foodie Delights!
