Keeping flageolets

tried a quick search but didn't pull anything up (except for some intersting but unrelated reading).

i planted some flageolets for the first time this year. They are OK, a little thick skinned but that might be my fault for waiting too long to harvest. A few beans were already drying on the vine when i picked them. i thought i would be able to see the beans inside the pod but they never really swelled that much even tho the beans have reached a mature size.

i have a pretty big sackful and would like to freeze them. They make a pretty good bean dip. Do i need to blanch them first? Would it be better to dry them and store in mason jars?
