Bean, lima, dried, boiled, drained
Flat kidney shaped bean can be white or green, large or small, dried beans soaked and boiled in unsalted water, then drained. Slightly sweet flavour when cooked. Popularly called butter bean. Produced in USA, South America and Madagascar, imported into Australia.
The majority of nutrients including proximates, minerals and vitamins were derived from a composite sample of 6 purchases (2 each x McKenzies, Omega Foods and unbranded) of dried lima beans from supermarkets in SA in 1989 (AGAL, 1990). The beans were soaked overnight, boiled in unsalted water until tender then drained, cooled and a homogenised sample was used for analysis. Cholesterol and retinol were imputed zero based on scientific literature. Folate and fatty acids were borrowed from USDA, reference 16072.
