Our canned pre-cooked legumes are grown using organic methods, with a focus on environmental sustainability and product quality. They are packaged in BPA-free cans. Given the international market alerts and the recent reassessment by EFSA of BPA safety, which significantly reduces the tolerable daily intake threshold, Bioitalia has decided not to use it in its products, even though they have always been safe. Furthermore, their preparation offers several advantages: we do not add salt to the preserving water. The legumes are blanched at 80 degrees. When still warm, we package them and then sterilize them at 121 degrees, creating a vacuum inside the organic legume jar. This allows us not to add salt for preservation.
