How to Boil Fava Beans or Broad Beans
- 1 as many as you have Fava beans (broad beans)
- 2 tbsp per liter of water Salt
- 100 ml per liter of water Sake
- 1000 ml Water
- Take the beans out of the pods.
- Despite how they look, they are pretty small when removed.
- Cut the black fibers off from the top.
- Bring the water to a boil (this time I used a large amount of beans so I used 2 liters of water).
- Next, add the salt and sake.
- Cook the beans for only 2 minutes!
- Drain the beans in a sieve or colander and let them cool.
- Do not put them in cold water.
- This will make them mushy.
- Use a fan to cool them.
- Once they have cooled enough so that you can touch them, peel the skin from the beans.
- They break easily, so be very gentle.
- That's all you need to do!
- Of course you can eat them as is, and they'll be delicious.
- You can have a handful before a meal, but try not to eat them all!
