French Bean (ফ্রেঞ্চ বিন) – Fresh and Nutritious

French Bean is one of the older varieties of beans, belonging to the kidney bean family. Unlike the long string beans (বরবটি) that are more common in local markets, French Beans are shorter, tender, and thinner, with a fine texture and a subtle crunch. They sometimes contain stringy fibres along the pod, which give them their characteristic bite.

This variety of bean is less frequently available in the market compared to string beans and is generally more expensive, making it a valued addition to the local platter.
