Best Fava Beans With Honey Lime And Thyme Recipes
FAVA BEANS IN TAHINI SAUCE
A delicious recipe I learned from an Egyptian friend. If you don't want a strong garlic taste, feel free to cook the garlic with the onion. You can stuff this mixture into a pita, add a dollop of plain yogurt, and enjoy!

FAVA BEANS WITH HONEY, LIME AND THYME
Among the qualities that make sweet and sour dishes popular among chefs is that they are simple to make. For the home cook, little in the way of technique is required for similar results. Just add vinegar or citrus juice along with a bit of sweetener at the end of a quick saute of meat, fish, poultry or vegetables. The intensity of these flavors invariably allows salt to be omitted or used sparingly, and the sauces are low in fat.

Steps:
- Shell beans from pods. Bring 3 quarts of well-salted water to a boil, add beans and blanch them for 2 minutes. Drain and place in a bowl of ice water for a few minutes. This loosens coats from large beans. Remove coats.
- In a small saucepan put honey and heat for about 30 seconds. Add thyme and lime juice. Whisk in butter and simmer for a few seconds, then add beans. Reheat beans in sauce and serve.

FAVA BEAN SALAD WITH JAMON AND FRESH MINT

According to The New Spanish Table, this salad was invented by Catalan chef Josep Mercader and is now copied all over Catalonia. If fresh fava beans are hard to find, shelled edamame may be substituted. Posted for ZWT 5.
