Dutch bean itself is an exotic species, not native to China, but it is not produced in the Netherlands. Many people will wonder how this name named after the Netherlands came from17th century. At that time, the Netherlands was very famous in sailing and doing business. They were good at collecting special products from all over the world and then selling them to all parts of the world. At that time, they were the top leaders in maritime trade. Therefore, China first obtained Dutch beans from Dutch merchant ships. At that time, Dutch vendors imported from Thailand near Myanmar and sold them to China. At that time, China directly named them Dutch beans because they were bought from the Dutch. Now it looks really casual.
In the Netherlands, the reason why this product is called China bean is even more interesting. So far, there are two different opinions. In the first way, it's a tactic for both sides to compliment each other. We call it Dutch bean, but the Dutch are embarrassed. After all, it's not produced by them, so they call it China bean. The second reason is that the planting conditions of Dutch beans themselves are not complicated, and after being introduced to China, they grow and develop very well, and they are multiplied by farmers in China. Originally an imported product, it was abruptly exported by China. Over time, people acquiesced that this bean was made in China, so they called it China bean.
To sum up, the name of Dutch bean in China still means to commemorate the introduction of this food to China by the Dutch, while it is called China bean abroad because of its yield and quality. But then again, friends who love to eat peas must pay attention to it. It must be cooked thoroughly before eating, otherwise there is a certain chance of food poisoning.
