Dried Broad Beans

They are most often sold fresh in their green pods, but also dried, usually found in the dried goods section of the grocery store.

The bean itself is large, flat, and green with a tough, clear skin that is typically removed before cooking. To do this, you should remove the seeds from their pods, blanche them in salted water, and then remove the skins before continuing to cook.

Dried Broad Beans should be soaked for 12 hours before cooking.
