Digging for gold: The little fava beans come individually nestled inside a stiff cocoon, and these are lined up 3, 4 or 5 in a row inside a fur sleeping bag. From the original pile of pods, to shedding its many layers, to being stir-fried with garlic, it’s definitely a what-you-get-is-not-what-you-eat situation.

The dream: Wall to wall fava beans. This is to die for. We planted these in early January, and now they are over six feet tall and full of flowers. Pretty soon they will be sticking out their fat green pods. The great thing is that you can eat the tips of the plants too. OK, so we overplanted a little. You can never have too many favas.
