Fava Bean Chummus

We harvested all of the fava beans in the garden and made a tasty concoction: fava bean chummus.

First you shell the beans from the pods and blanch them in boiling water for three minutes. This slightly cooks them and separates the membrane from the inner bean.

Then you remove the membrane.
Put all of the shells in your compost bucket for later and place all of the beans in a blender or food processor.Add olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, salt, and cumin.
Mix it up and get ready to dip.
Eat with pita chips. Garnish with a bit of cilantro and enjoy.
