Dried Broad Beans for Savoury Recipes

Aksoy Broad Beans, also known as fava beans, have a mild, buttery taste with a slightly bitter note.

Once cooked until tender, they can be served whole or blended into a smooth purée.

How to Prepare Dried Broad Beans

1. Soak the dried beans overnight in plenty of cold water.
2. Drain and rinse thoroughly.
3. Remove the skins if required for your recipe.
4. Cover with fresh water and bring to the boil.
5. Reduce the heat and simmer until completely tender.

Cooking time is typically around 20–25 minutes after soaking, depending on the desired texture.
