Incorporate plant-based protein and rich color into your menu with Tamam Red Kidney Beans. Distributed by ChickenPieces.com from our Calgary logistics hub, this 2.84 L (approx. 100 fl oz) bulk can is the definitive choice for high-volume foodservice operations across Canada. Tamam ensures that every bean is harvested at the peak of freshness and processed to maintain its structural integrity, preventing the mushiness often found in lower-quality brands. These beans feature a firm skin and a creamy interior, making them the ideal ingredient for slow-simmered stews or vibrant cold salads where texture is paramount.

Frequently Asked Questions
Should I rinse the beans before using them?
Yes. While the liquid (aquafaba) is safe, we recommend rinsing the beans under cold water to remove excess sodium and starch, which ensures the best flavor and texture in your final dish.

Tamam typically provides a medium-to-dark red kidney bean, which is the most versatile variety for chili and traditional stews.
Is this product gluten-free?
Yes, Tamam Red Kidney Beans are naturally gluten-free. They are a safe choice for guests with celiac disease or gluten sensitivities.
How many servings are in one 2.84 L can?
A standard "Number 10" can provides approximately 22 to 25 half-cup servings, making it perfect for large-scale catering or family gatherings.
What is the shelf life of an unopened can?
Canned beans have an incredibly long shelf life, typically staying at peak quality for 2 to 3 years when stored in a cool, dry pantry.
How long do they last once opened?
Once transferred to a sealed container and refrigerated, the beans should be consumed within 3 to 5 days.
