Sea Isle Black Eye Beans in a 500g bag are dried beans ready for soaking and cooking — the smaller-size pour of one of Caribbean and West African cooking's foundation pulses. Black eye beans are essential for Caribbean rice and peas, soups, stews, and the traditional New Year's Day dishes across the diaspora. Soak overnight in cold water, then simmer until tender (usually 45 minutes to an hour). The 500g bag is the everyday family size. Sea Isle is a Caribbean food brand familiar across UK Caribbean grocery shelves.
