Fava beans, or broad beans, are legumes that have been enjoyed in Mediterranean diets for centuries. They are highly nutritious, rich in protein, fiber, and essential vitamins like folate and vitamin B1.

When prepared as pickled beans, the fava beans retain their hearty texture while absorbing tangy, savory flavors from the pickling solution.

Think snack, salads, and as a garnish.

Fava beans, as a legume, are a sustainable crop that enriches the soil with nitrogen, reducing the need for artificial fertilizers. This makes them an environmentally friendly choice for both farmers and consumers.
