“I bought a jar of the beans in my veg box from Riverford and realised how different they were. I do stand there in the kitchen eating them from the jar! I mainly get the chick peas and the white beans as these are in the Riverford shop.”
“Fabulous products. Since buying jar of bold beans 2 years ago i have stopped buying tinned beans and buy bold beans. I have just started a regular on-line order. A completely different level of taste and quality and as such good value particularly in a largely veggie household. Jars great for storage of dried goods, flowers etc. All round great product.”
“What can i say! Such lovely beans😋😋😋
I never liked beans until as part of healthy eating i decided to give these a go, lovely flavour and creamy texture. Ive made quite a few of the recipes online and in the book.
Today ive made curry/dahl queen chickpeas:- chopped onion, chilli, garlic , 2 tomatoes and peppers, 2 tblsp pataks curry paste, 1 large jar of chickpeas, 1 tblsp coconut cream, 1 tblsp of fredas chilli peanut butter and finish with corriander.”
“As a newly turned 'social carnivor' ( I only eat meat if I am a guest at someone's house, as I hate to cause extra work and agro), my diet has really changed at home. I make a lot of humous with the chickpeas, sometimes mixing with beetroot or roasted aubergine, but my real winner is a quick cassarole of gently fried shallots, tomato puree, vegetable stock, a jar of delicious BOLD BEAN chickpeas and some rose harrisa and supper is ready. Serve with brown basmati or pearl barley and garnish with corriander. On another note...my cholesterol has dropped significantly since my diet changed...so a winner all round!”
“I have been a huge supporter of Bold beans, for a while. Wholesome goodness straight from the jar, each variety of beans are cooked with love and passion.
I LOVE THEM !!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Tried a few which are very delicious and I also enjoyed the recipes in the cook book - only slight complaint the lids are really hard to remove and even my strong husband found them challenging! I have to resort to puncturing to get into the deliciousness inside !”
“I discovered these beans at Ocado and won’t ever go back to tinned. They’re a completely different product. I love the butter beans in particular, but they’re all good. Shame Ocado doesn’t do the big jars because I get through them. Just waiting for BBCo to do a jar of mixed beans for my beany casseroles. Have only done two recipes from the book. The Bean Florentine was absolutely delicious, but sadly the roasted cauliflower one went in the bin. Will try others and hope for better results.”
“Very delicious beans and lovely texture, encourages you to do more with beans even if just adding to a tin of soup or leftovers, it bulks food out and they have a lovely texture and taste as well as creating bean based meals and snacks.”
“Amelia's appearance on Dragons' Den prompted me to order a mixed pack of beans. They really are so much nicer than tinned beans, and the recipes for white bean carbonara and black bean parmigiana are gorgeous!”
“Delicious and so worth the money. They’re like a different product from tinned beans. Different texture and taste completely. And the recipes on the website are great!”
“Great company very impressed! Loved the beans and recipes so much I'll be bringing the subscription forward! Converted hubby, although he did drop the butter bean jar on the kitchen floor!🫣”
“I recently bought the selection of 6 different jars of Bold Beans, after a recommendation from a client. We have loved the taste, texture and quality of all of them so far, and the jar size is generous so it's easy to make a big, healthy meal or batch cook using just one jar. I have discovered one problem though, which sounds trivial but honestly is enough to stop me buying them again - I cannot for the life of me open the jars! I consider myself fairly fit and strong, (I'm 44 a year old female and work as a personal trainer) but every time I have wanted to cook with the Bold Beans I have had to wait for my husband to come home to help open the jar...and even he has struggled. Please please could you adjust your processing so that the lids aren't put on quite so tightly? I never struggle with other brands.”
“These beans are amazing! They're all great but the Butter Beans and Queen Chickpeas are out of this world, honestly. What's really brilliant too are the recipes, either the book or on line there's so much inspiration. What a great company!!”
“I adore every product I’ve tried from the Bold Bean Co. My last recipe was Gigantes Plakis using the Queen Butter Beans & it was delicious.
I also treated myself to the jar opener after a wrist & hand injury & it works like magic.
I really hope the company continues to be a huge success - I certainly recommend your products to anyone who I know loves quality food.”
“I have always loved pulses of all kinds, but Bold Beans have taken my enjoyment to a new level! They are delicious straight from the jar, and the Bold Beans recipe book suggests fabulous new ways to use them.”
“Love Bold Beans! I was introduced to them shortly before the Dragon’s Den appearance. The butter beans are my favourite, but they’re all good.
I’ve since bought the cookbook, and their website has a fantastic selection of recipes for free.”
