Ciuoto is a dwarf Borlotto bean, with a not very large round-ovoid seed with a white-cream background with red-winey streaks.
This ecotype of Sarconi bean is the best known and perhaps the oldest: highly appreciated on the market for its almost non-existent skin after cooking.
When used in the kitchen, it redeems itself from the dialectal form “Ciuoto” – in Italian “Cretino” – and becomes a “QUEEN” food for its various uses and for the excellent qualities of taste, flavor and cooking.
It is in fact an authentic and superior borlotto, to be used for the most varied and tasty recipes.Sarconi PGI beans and legumes are a typical product of Lucania
