Selected by SalazonArte for their stall at the Central Market of Valencia.
Taste: smooth and balanced — salty with a refreshing acidic note and the sweet-vegetal background of the legume.

Lupini beans are one of the most complete legumes, standing out for their exceptional content of:
- High-quality vegetable protein (even superior to other common legumes).
- Beneficial unsaturated fats.
- B and E vitamins.
- Calcium, potassium, magnesium, phosphorus, and zinc.
A traditional snack that combines flavor and nutrition without sacrificing enjoyment.
The usual ritual: a bowl of lupini beans in the center, cold beer or vermouth, and the small plate for the skins — an appetizer that is also entertainment.
In the classic "esmorzaret": with peanuts, olives, and the house pickled tomatoes — the Valencian bar table, complete with four counter-top products.
The snack that truly satisfies: mid-morning or mid-afternoon — its protein and fiber deliver what potato chips promise but don't fulfill.
Peeled, in the kitchen: in salads, mincemeats with tomato and onion, lupini hummus, or sautéed with paprika — the hidden legume of Mediterranean cuisine.
The house recommendation: serve them cold with a little of their broth, and if you like them with a kick, a pinch of hot paprika or a few drops of lemon on top.
Lupini beans, selected by size, cooked and cured in brine according to traditional Mediterranean methods — the legume snack that has been consumed in Spain since Roman times and is an institution in Valencia's *esmorzaret*. Selected by SalazonArte for their stall at Valencia's Central Market.
Preferably keep refrigerated and covered with their own broth — outside of it, they dry out and become excessively salty.
Once opened: keep tightly sealed in the refrigerator, use clean utensils when serving.
