Ingredients
  • 2 cups fava beans
  • 2 large cloves of garlic, minced
  • 1 Tbsp kosher salt for water
  • 1/4 cup grape seed oil
  • 1/2 tsp kosher salt for dip
  • 4 grinds of fresh ground pepper
Instructions
  1. Prepare fava beans leaving out the step where you peel the second bitter skin after boiling. Strain the fava beans, and dump them in a large mouth mason jar. Add minced garlic and 1/4 cup grape seed oil. Use a hand blender and pulse until it becomes the consistency of a creamy dip. Place puree in a ramekin and drizzle grape seed oil over top. Eat with fresh crisp vegetable sticks, or corn tortilla chips, or spread on a crostini, and enjoy immensely. We did not have corn tortilla chips in our pantry, so I decided to make handmade corn tortilla chips, using corn tortillas I had in the refrigerator.
