Once a staple in British kitchens for more than 2,000 years, the fava bean has been all but forgotten - until now! Known for its versatility and low-carbon footprint, this ancient legume is making a comeback on plates and in farms across the country.
In episode two of our Bang in Some Beans podcast series, chef Melissa Hemsley hears from Josiah Meldrum of Hodmedod's and farmer Emma Loder-Symonds tells us why she mills her fava beans; and the University of Reading's Raising the Pulse project presents a vision of how fava bean flour could change the conversation around white sliced bread, while chef and author Tim Anderson gives us his recipe for miso twists.
You can find the recipe for Tim Anderson's Miso Twists here and more delicious bean recipes here.
