Oh, and this: "but, as often happens with my good intentions, I didn’t quite have everything I needed." That's so me! I, too, have never had a fava bean, but you really make them sound irresistible!

Oh, and this: “but, as often happens with my good intentions, I didn’t quite have everything I needed.”

That’s so me!

I love love love fava beans, but I must confess that the risotto recipe just has you shell them from the pod and toss 'em in. And they are delicious and tender - I guess because they cook in the risotto. There was a note in the book that said to cook first & then remove from the outer peeling was optional and not necessary. Go figure. Your pasta looks - as always - wonderful. Still no word on LSU ......stay tuned. How exciting to try a new food!

I think it's great that you're enjoying great, local beans ... especially fava beans. We'll still have to wait a bit before we see them here. Isn’t Rorie wonderful!

I've never had fresh fava beans. In fact, I've never even seen them for sale here. Sounds fantastic. I’ve never had fresh fava beans. In fact, I’ve never even seen them for sale here.
