  • First of all you want to remove the fava beans from the pod. Start with using a knife and make a cut lengthwise. Use your fingers to open the pod and start removing the beans.
  • Fill a medium sized saucepan with cold water. Add 5 grams of salt to the water. Make sure the saucepan is on a medium-high heat.
  • When the water is boiling its time to start adding the beans. Cook the beans between 3 to 5 minutes.
  • When the time is up, you need a colander. Put the beans in the colander and drain the remaining water. Add a bowl with ice cold water and keep the beans in for 3-5 minutes.
  • After the time in the cold water, it’s time to pop out the beans from their skin. Just start peeling with your fingers.
  • After peeling the skin, it’s time to eat! You can add them in every dish you want. For example a soup or a healthy wrap! Or use the beans as a side dish
