Natural Farmer Tetovac White Beans, Macedonian 900g (31.7oz)

Natural Farmer Tetovac White Beans are large white beans from the Tetovo region of North Macedonia — the Tetovac bean, prized across the Western Balkans for its size, thin skin, and creamy texture when cooked, the variety that Macedonian and broader Balkan cooks specify by name when they want the bean to produce the thick, smooth pasulj or tavče gravče that the regional cooking tradition demands. Natural Farmer is a Macedonian food producer, and the Tetovac bean is the brand's regional-specialty product — a bean variety with genuine terroir, grown in the Polog Valley around Tetovo where the specific soil and growing conditions produce a bean with a character different from generic white beans. Tetovac beans are the bean for the Macedonian national dish tavče gravče — beans baked in a clay dish with onion, peppers, and dried meat, slowly oven-cooked until the top forms a caramelised crust and the interior reaches the thick, creamy consistency that no canned bean can replicate. Soak overnight and boil until tender, then bake in a clay or casserole dish with onion, oil, paprika, and dried pepper for the classic Macedonian tavče gravče, or use in any Balkan bean stew where the size and creaminess of the Tetovac bean makes a visible difference to the finished dish.
