Fava Beans 101

     One of the greatest things about modern life it going to the farmer's market today and buying fava beans so that later in the day I can look up directions online on how to prepare them. This is a pretty awesome video if I do say so myself. I just whipped up a batch of fava beans following this recipe and I must tell you the results were quite tasty.

Another interesting thing about Fava Beans is that traditional Egyptian falafel is made from Fava Beans, not Garbanzo Beans (Chick Peas).

Cool. I did not know that.

Fava beans are best eaten with a human liver and a nice Chianti.

Hmmm.... MGH , the wine sounds nice, but I will have to do without the human liver side dish.
