Young, fresh broad beans are delicous. You've probably only ever eaten old, big ones before if you think they taste nasty. I forgot to mention that, yeah the young broad beans are lovely... I sometimes pick them straight off the plant and eat them. The only downside for me is 'peeling' them, the younger they are the less necessary that becomes. They make nice dips, or mashed with some garlic, mint, lemon juice... yum. I don't mind peeling them just as I no longer mind weeding. When I was young and more impetuous than I am now, I used to hate both those jobs. Now I like the excuse to slow down and sit with a cuppa on the back verandah in the sun. Slow food, and all that jazz.... AND in my next life I am going to come back as a broad bean. I like the idea of being cosseted in a furry silver lined pod. |
