I love fava beans…they have sort of nutty flavor and I usually put them in my salad.

Rachel – sadly, the pods of fava (or broad) beans don’t really break down in the same way as pea pods do. When they are very young, you can grill the pods whole, but after that their fate lies in the composter.

James – a tasting party sounds fab. Unfortunately, the GreenProphet world extends rather far, and I’m not sure how we’d ever settle on a location. Maybe an international, web-choreographed cook-a-long sometime down the road…?

and in dear ole blighty they are called broad beans….I grew up with broad beans on the family allotment – my favourite vegetable. Heady days of summer are here at last – many thanks for this great recipe Hamutai –
how about a green prophet tasting party of all your fabulous food soon?

Or maybe we can make soup out of the pods, like in your recipe a couple of weeks ago?
