About Wax beans
Wax beans, a pale yellow variety of string beans, are tender legumes enjoyed in cuisines around the world. Believed to have originated in Central and South America, they have a mild, slightly buttery flavor that complements a variety of dishes. Rich in fiber, wax beans support digestive health, while their low-calorie profile makes them an excellent choice for weight management. They're also a good source of vitamins A and C, which contribute to healthy skin and a strong immune system, and they provide small amounts of calcium and iron. Their bright color and crisp texture make them a visually appealing and nutritious addition to salads, stir-fries, and soups. Wax beans are virtually fat-free and naturally low in sodium, but take care when preparing them with added fats or salt to preserve their health benefits. Versatile and nutrient-packed, wax beans are a wholesome choice for any meal.
