Fava beans?
Fava bean spread:
Shell fresh fava beans, boil for about 15 minutes, let cool and
remove the husks. (This last is a little labor intensive.) Mash them
will small amounts of olive oil, white vinegar, and salt. Some
other useful additions are finely chopped mint, or cocoanut. (Resist
the temptation to add lemon juice; counter to intuition the flavor
really doesn't work.) I mash them with a fork but some would
like to use a small food processor or mixer wand.
Chill before serving on toast/bread/crackers etc.
