Description Bulk beans broad, also known as fava beans, are a type of legume popular in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines. They have a distinct flavour and texture and can be prepared in numerous ways. Bulk beans broad are harvested in the spring and early summer and are frequently sold fresh in their pods. Throughout the year, they can also be found canned or frozen. Because the outer pod of fresh broad beans is tough and inedible, they must be cooked before eating. Before using fresh broad beans in recipes, they must be shelled and blanched in boiling water for a few minutes. Bulk beans broad are high in protein, fibre, and vitamins like folate and vitamin C. They’re also low in fat and calories, so they’re a healthy addition to meals. If you want to buy in packets for convenience please click here. Follow us on Instagram @missspeltsorganics Related
