Flat beans
The flat bean is the flat, long brother of the green bean. The name flat bean comes from a fibrous string along the length of the bean that is present in heirloom varieties, but not in modern varieties. Because string beans do not have an overpowering taste, they are ideal for use in wok dishes or salads.
Types of flat beans
There are two different types of flat beans: stem flat beans and stake flat beans. The difference between the two lies in the plant they grow on. The plant of the bush flat bean remains relatively low, while the plant of the pole flat bean can grow to enormous heights.
