The runner beans are dying back (partly because I didn’t water them during the recent dry spell). Soon it will be time to bring in the pods to finish drying, hull, and store the beans for winter soups and stews.
Nearly the last of the 2023 beans were soaked overnight, boiled briskly this morning, and will go in the slow cooker as part of a bean/lentil/onion/chorizo stew for tonight.
