While we still have plenty of fresh new broad beans available at the farm, broad beans in general are getting a bit middle aged now. Attached a nice recipe from a book by Arto der Haroutunian. Also they make a lovely hummus. Cook until soft (I take the skins off if I'm making it for others but if you have a stick blender it should blend them in). Mash, add good olive oil, lemon juice, chopped up garlic cloves, some of the cooking water if it needs to be softer. I also add tahini, some add mint or other herbs or spices. I'm being deliberately vague as everyone knows what combo they like. Blend with stick blender or other such.
