Fava beans have been a staple of human diets for thousands of years. The plants are easy to grow and very hardy, and the beans can be consumed from a relatively early point in their maturation cycle. Throughout Europe, Asia, Africa and South America they’ve been a foundational ingredient for dishes for both the rich and poor.

Fava beans are a very nutritious bean, high in B vitamins and many essential minerals. They are also very filling, with a quarter their weight coming from protein, and another quarter from fiber.
