Some purple and burgundy bean varieties contain natural pigments called anthocyanins. These pigments can break down during cooking, causing the pods to change from purple or burgundy to greenish or olive shades. This color change is a natural characteristic of many colored bean varieties.
If your Burgundy Bean is a snap bean variety, harvest the pods when they are young, tender, and well developed before the seeds become overly large. Check the variety's recommended maturity period and harvest stage, as these can differ between bush and pole beans.
Burgundy-colored beans are available in different growth types, including bush and climbing varieties. Bush beans generally grow without additional support, while pole beans need stakes, poles, or trellises. Check the seed packet to identify the growth habit of your particular Burgundy Bean variety.
