In Portugal, people call these beans tremoços. And, they are quite popular in Portuguese food. They usually serve tremoços as a side dish or snacks. They taste like cooked soybeans soaked in salt water. The picture of a half empty jar of my tremoços in my fridge.

They taste like cooked soybeans. Since they are big in size, just eating 10 of them already makes me feel full.

@Shivram59 Yes, please do. I never saw Lupini beans in my country of origin. I knew these beans only when I first came to Portugal.

@Ayu2026 I'm not really a beans or pulses fan so I never use them, and I do cook a lot

I don’t think I have ever tried them myself. I’m curious now, though.

I don't think these beans are common anywhere else other than in Europe. In Europe, Lupini are considered everyday snacks in Mediterranean cultures. I never heard or saw these kind of beans either before I went to Portugal. Perhaps you can try to look for these beans at the health store or Italian or Spanish Shop in US.

Chickpeas? No, they are not. I know what chickpeas look like. Chickpeas are also called garbanzos. Lupini is another kind of beans .

Well, these beans are yellow. So, probably you will like them, just like the other yellow beans that you like.
