French Filet beans are meant to be picked when they are still pretty small and thin. The ones in this picture are even a little on the big size. If you pick them small, you can charge quite a bit more since it is more labour intensive. They are a big hit at the market and with restaurant chefs. Since they are so tender they are delicious raw or in a real quick pickle. The purple will lose its colour if you cook it. We grew were velour, concador and tavera varieties.
