How to Prepare Fresh Fava Beans
To prepare Fava beans
Split open the pods and remove all the beans.
Bring a large pot of water to a boil.
Add salt and drop in the beans.
Boil for about 3 minutes, then remove to a bowl of cold water with ice.
When beans have cooled enough to handle, using a paring knife or your thumbnail,
split the outer skin at one end and press from the other end to pop out the fava bean.
The beans are now ready for your recipe.
