Uses

Melissa's offers a unique and extraordinary new product named Sea Bean (Salicornia)™. This unique vegetable was originally found only in the wild, primarily on the coasts of Europe, but is now carefully cultivated on the desert coasts of the Sea of Cortez. Nourished with seawater, Sea Bean captures the vitamins, minerals and other healthy nutrients of the sea. It has a crisp, crunchy texture and fresh salty flavor. Sea Bean may be blanched, sautéed, steamed, stir-fried, baked, or served fresh as a salad ingredient or even as an edible garnish.

Selection, Storage & Handling

Sea Bean (Salicornia)™ is hand picked and packed for excellent quality. Rinse before using. Keep refrigerated. Do not freeze. Sea Bean stays fresh for approximately two weeks.
