Our Bubble Bath Beans, locally grown in Indiana, do contain Tiger Eye beans. They are similar to kidney bean, but are thinner skinned and creamier in texture. The mixed beans include, but not limited to the following: organic Tiger eye beans, Iroquois beans, Good Mother Stallard beans, Cocagne beans, Amethyst beans, Black Turtle beans, Zolfino beans and other organic beans.
Soak beans 24-48 hours. Drain. In a 2 quart pot, cover beans with water, adding 1 tsp salt. Bring water to boil, then a simmer covered for 30 minutes. Turn off heat, set aside.
To another pot, heat oil. add onions, paprika and cook until translucent. Add lima beans, corn and pumpkin. Season. Add beans and cooking liquid to second pot. Simmer 20 minute, until beans and pumpkin are tender. Adjust seasoning as needed.
Broil peppers 4 in. from the heat until skins blister, about 5 minutes. With tongs, rotate peppers a quarter turn. Broil and rotate until all sides are blistered and blackened. Immediately place peppers in a large bowl; cover and let stand for 20 minutes.
Peel off and discard charred skin. Remove stems and seeds. Cut the peppers into thin strips; place in a large bowl. Add onion.
In a small bowl, whisk the oil, vinegar, herbs, garlic, garlic powder, cayenne, pepper and salt; pour over pepper mixture and toss to coat. Cover and refrigerate for up to 4 hours.
Before serving, allow peppers to come to room temperature. Place on a serving plate; top with tomatoes, cheese and basil leaves.
