A little larger than navy beans, slightly oval, and white. They are used as casseroles, baked beans and soup. Any recipe that uses other white beans like navy beans or cannellini beans can be made with Great Northern Beans instead. Though these beans alone may not have considerable taste, they do absorb flavor extremely well. They will easily take on the flavor profiles of spices or herbs used in cooking.
