Fresh shelling beans thrive in the late summer months, before the pods begin to show signs of drying. Because most varieties, such as kidney, cannellini, scarlet runner, lima, cranberry and black-eyed peas, are used dried, few cooks realize the distinctive qualities they add when included fresh in summer dishes.
