I cooked them all together, so I haven't been paying attention to the cooked flavors. Sultan's Green Crescent stood out because of the shape, though. I just ate some cooked beans and noticed that the yellow beans had a little more sweetness than the others. Oh, and also, some of the ones that I like to eat in the garden never make it to the kitchen.

I haven't (ever) canned any beans.
