My fava bean-hating husband has now decided he's the fava bean's biggest fan. While I'm delighted to have one more vegetable to tempt him with, I'll have to devote twice the garden space to them now. You've been warned.

I am so glad that Gabe showed her how to fix fava beans. I want her to make these whenever she is able to find fresh fava beans!

A co-worker of mine brought me a few Fava beans to try out. He told me the basics on how to cook them. I searched for an easy recipe and I have to say this was GREAT!!! This was super duper easy recipe and the end result was definitely worth the work. I used granulated garlic instead of minced and it was still good. I will add onions to this next time.

Fava beans are the Queen of beans. As you have shown you MUST peel the beans or you ruin their wonderful flavor. The work is shelling and peeling the beans once that's done it takes minutes - Excellent recipe! I also freeze the peeled beans Thanks Julesong for a recipe of one of my favorite veggies

Yumm! These were great tasting beans! We ended up with a lot less than we thought (most of the bulk is the outer skin which was composted) but the little bit that was left was sure tasty. Thanks for this easy recipe that really highlights this vegetable that is new to our table.

My, these were good. We didn't have REALLY fresh liver, so I served with fresh grouper (it was still flopping) and a nice Sauvignon Blanc as we thought Chianti inappropriate for the fish. Hannibal and I enjoyed it all very much and we thank you for this easy recipe. I only wish we could get fresh fava beans more often.
