Phaselous Vulgaris

The black turtle bean is a small, shiny variety of the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) especially popular in Latin American Cuisine, though it can also be found in the Cajun and Creole Cuisines of south Louisiana. Like all varieties of the common bean, it is native to the Americas, but has been introduced around the world. It is also used in East Indian cooking, Punjabi cuisine, where it is known as maa ki daal . The black turtle bean is often simply called the black bean (frijoles negros, zaragoza, judía negra, poroto negro, or caraota o habichuela negra in Spanish; and feijão preto in Portuguese), although this terminology can cause confusion with other black beans.
