Jacob’s Cattle beans arrived in the United States with German settlers who called them Torellen. Larger than most beans, these have a dark maroon spotted pattern dotting their white skin that justifies the new world name they are sometimes given: Dalmatian. They are also sometimes called trout or coach beans.
Before cooking, soak the beans overnight. They may be prepared in a crockpot, on top of the stove, or pressure cooked. 1 cup of dried beans makes approximately 2 1/2 cups of cooked beans. They are often featured in soups, and can be added to salads, relishes, and stews.
