About Yellow wax beans
Yellow wax beans, a variation of snap beans, are a versatile legume recognized for their tender texture and mild flavor. Their vibrant yellow hue offers visual appeal to a variety of dishes, including salads, stir-fries, and casseroles. Originating in Central and South America, they are now widely cultivated and enjoyed across global cuisines. Nutritionally, yellow wax beans are low in calories and rich in fiber, making them a great choice for promoting digestion and maintaining a healthy weight. They also provide essential vitamins such as vitamin C, folate, and vitamin K, along with minerals like potassium and iron. Their antioxidant content supports immune health and combats oxidative stress. With no saturated fats or cholesterol, they are a heart-healthy addition to your diet. However, they may lose nutrients if overcooked, so steaming or lightly sautéing is recommended to preserve their benefits.
