What Are Fava Beans?
Fava beans, also known as Vicia faba, are one of the UK's oldest domesticated crops, dating back to the Iron Age. Belonging to the pea and bean (legume) family, fava beans are the same species as the commonly cooked fresh or frozen green broad bean.
Popular in the Mediterranean, Middle East, and North Africa, fava beans are key ingredients in many recipes, such as stews and falafel, enjoyed around the world.
Although widely exported from the UK, we encourage local enjoyment of these delicious homegrown fava beans. Try them with a pinch of sea salt for an extra mouth-watering touch.
