According to Rancho Gordo, an online store specializing in heirloom beans and other "new world specialty food," Mayacopas are great in place of great Nothern or Canellini beans. When cooked, they're great in salads, soups, chilis. They tend to keep their shape when cooked, so they're especially ideal for salads. Mayacopas also absorb flavors well and make a great hummus.
