Dry fava beans, also known as broad beans, are a type of legume that are typically harvested when mature and then dried for later use. They have a nutty, earthy flavor and can be used in a variety of soups and stews. They are also a good source of protein, fiber, and other essential nutrients.

To prepare dry fava beans, they must be soaked overnight before boiling, frying, roasting, or pressure cooking.
