Black turtle bean

Small, shiny variety of the common bean

The black turtle bean is a small, shiny variety of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) used in many cuisines. Like all varieties of the common bean, it is native to the Americas, but has been introduced around the world. The black turtle bean is simply called the black bean (frijoles negros, zaragoza, judía negra, poroto negro, caraota negra, or habichuela negra in Spanish; and feijão preto in Portuguese), although this terminology can cause confusion with at least three other types of black beans.
