Popular Beans delivered to London
A pot of kuru fasulye simmering on a Sunday, white beans cooked slowly with tomato and pepper and served over rice, is one of the most common family meals across Turkish and Cypriot households in London, and it starts with a bag of proper dried beans rather than a tin.
What this category is and how it is used
Dried beans are soaked overnight and cooked slowly, usually with onion, tomato paste and pepper, to make dishes such as kuru fasulye or a barbunya salad served cold with olive oil. DURU's white beans are the standard choice for the classic stew, while BODRUM's Alubia and Rosecoco beans suit a barbunya-style dish, and AYTAÇ and BURCU round out the everyday range with black-eyed beans and ready-boiled options for quicker meals.
The range and its brands
The category holds 11 products from DURU, BODRUM, BURCU and AYTAÇ. DURU alone offers white beans in 1000g and 2000g bags along with cranberry beans, Kirgiz 8mm beans and black-eyed beans, giving households a choice of bean type and pack size depending on how often they cook a pot. BURCU's pre-boiled white beans work as a quicker alternative when there is no time to soak dried beans overnight.

Cooking tips for a London kitchen
- Soak dried beans for at least 8 hours before cooking a traditional kuru fasulye
- A 2000g bag of DURU white beans suits a family that cooks the dish regularly
- Barbunya made with BODRUM's Rosecoco or Alubia beans is often served cold as a starter rather than a main
Because dried beans keep for a long time unopened, many London households buy a larger bag every few weeks rather than a small pack each time, treating it as a store-cupboard basic alongside rice and pasta.
