There are so many different varieties of fava beans available today, and preparation techniques vary widely. It can be confusing! Fava beans can be purchased fresh in the pod, large and dried, small and dried, canned, frozen, or as a fresh sealed cold pack. My hope is that this post will answer all of your questions on how to prepare fava beans, so you can stop wondering and start eating.
Fava beans are one of the oldest domesticated food legumes. References to favas occur in both the Talmud and the Mishna, indicating they have been part of the Middle Eastern diet since at least since the 4th century.

Tova Dickstein from Neot Kedumim Biblical Land Preserve in Israel once told me that fava beans were likely a main protein sources for the ancient Israelites. In fact, the ancient method for cooking fava beans is discussed in the Talmud. The dried beans were immersed in a pot of water, sealed, then buried beneath hot coals so they could slowly cook.
