Fresh fava bean salad with sliced fennel, mint, scallions, and Parmesan.
Fava beans are a gardener’s dream!
They are delicious, though you do have to work for it.
Elise Bauer
Remove all the beans from their pods.
Add the beans to 2 quarts of boiling, salted water.
Simmer the beans for a few minutes, until just tender.

In a bowl combine the freshly peeled and cooked fava beans, the sliced fennel, and onions.
Drizzle extra virgin olive oil over the mixture, sprinkle with salt and pepper, and toss to coat.
Garnish with fennel fronds and/or mint sprigs.
