How to Cook
Rinse the dried beans and remove any debris. Soak them in plenty of water for 8–12 hours or overnight, then drain. Split favas may have their skins slipped off after soaking for a smoother texture.
Simmer the soaked beans in fresh water for 1–2 hours until tender, adding salt near the end. For snacks, cooked or soaked favas can be fried or roasted until crisp.
