Butter beans (uncooked)

Butter beans are large, flat, pale legumes with a smooth, buttery texture once cooked, closely related to lima beans. They are used in stews, casseroles, and salads, holding their shape well after cooking while becoming creamy in texture. Dried beans require soaking, while canned versions are ready to use.

Measured before cooking, while the ingredient hasn't yet absorbed water or changed texture.
