In reply to Vivian. Hi Vivian, great idea! They should work well with a toothpick.

would these work in a mini cup using a toothpick to eat them or are they too soft for a toothpick? thinking of creative appetizers for a buffet.

I buy those gigante beans at Whole Foods off the olive bar. Delicious but very expensive. After reading your recipe I’m sold! I have dried Royal Coronas. I’ll send a report in a few days! Love the recipes!

In reply to Susan. yes - the canned beans just fall apart more than those cooked from scratch.

Could canned butter beans be used in place of the gigante beans?

This is a terrific recipe! The first time I made it was when I needed to use up some gigante beans I had in the fridge. The second time, I cooked some gigantes just so I could make this recipe again. 🙂 These marinated beans are great on their own and also wonderful mixed with pasta, hot or cold. So good! 10/10

Delicious!!! I love this recipe and will use the beans and dressing on a green salad. So full of flavour and taste!
