Mended Vegetables: Fava Beans



Mending may start as a practical necessity, but throughout history and around the world we see it evolve into a tradition, an art form, a way of life, a mode of meditation. While shelling a pound of early spring fava beans a few days ago, the urge became irresistible. So here you have some mended favas, which I may (or may not) lead to a forthcoming series of mended fruits and vegetables depending on how the mood strikes me. Enjoy.
