Dried Fava Beans Salty, crunchy and tasty! Go figure we eat beans as a snack too. You can find these at your local Portuguese market, but they are also easy to make. So give it a try. Here's how you make them. In a large bowl soak 1 bag of dried fava beans over night in water. Enough water to cover the beans by more than half inch. The next morning you can see that the beans have split apart. If some have not done so, go ahead and pull them apart yourself. Now rinse them and lay them on a kitchen towel to dry. Heat 2/3 of a cup of vegetable oil or olive oil in a large pan. Add 1/2 cup of the halved beans at a time to the oil. When favas begin to brown, remove with slotted spoon to a plate lined with paper towels to catch the excess oil. Repeat with 1/2 cup. When all the fava beans have been cooked, lightly sprinkle with salt, garlic powder and cayenne pepper or your fav seasoning. They will become crispy when you let them cool off. ENJOY!
