HEARTH'S FAVA-BEAN SALAD



Hearth's Fava-Bean Salad image

Provided by Amanda Hesser

Categories     salads and dressings, appetizer, side dish

Time 15m

Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

Salt
4 pounds fava beans
2 spring onions or 2 scallions, finely chopped
Freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil (Canora uses Laudemio)
2 cups 1/4-inch-diced Pecorino
Toscano (a sheep's milk cheese that's firm enough to dice but not so firm that it crumbles)
3 teaspoons crushed imported oregano
Small pinch crushed chili pepper
1/3 cup finely chopped parsley
1 tablespoon white wine
1 tablespoon white-wine vinegar

Steps:

  • To prepare the fava beans, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Shell the beans and parboil for 30 to 40 seconds. Plunge the favas into ice water to stop the cooking. Pop each bean out of its outer skin by pinching with thumb and forefinger; you may have to slit the outer skin with a knife if the beans are mature. (You should have about 4 cups.)
  • In a bowl, combine the favas with the onions. Season lightly with salt and generously with pepper. Douse with olive oil. If serving this later, add the remaining ingredients just before serving. If serving immediately, fold in the cheese, oregano, pepper, parsley, white wine and vinegar. Adjust seasoning to taste. Serve with crusty bread. Be sure to spoon on extra oil for soaking up with the bread.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 lemons
3 medium artichokes
3 cups whole milk
5 cups water, plus more for bowl and pan
1 pound each white and green asparagus, cut into 5-inch spears, trimmed and peeled
2 cups dry white wine
2 pounds fresh fava bean pods, shelled (about 2 cups)
1/2 cup fresh mint
3 ounces ricotta salata cheese, crumbled (3/4 cup)
1/3 cup low-fat buttermilk
1/3 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 scallion, green part only
3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (from 2 lemons)
1 teaspoon finely grated lemon zest
1/4 teaspoon coarse salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Steps:

  • Make the salad: Juice 1 lemon into a large bowl filled with water. Remove tough outer leaves of artichokes, cut off top two-thirds, and scoop out fuzzy chokes with a spoon; discard. Cut each in half, transferring to lemon water as you work to prevent discoloration.
  • Bring milk, 3 cups water, and white asparagus to a simmer in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low, and cook until tender, skimming foam, about 45 minutes. Transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate; let drain and cool.
  • Bring prepared artichokes, wine, remaining lemon (squeezed, with rind), and remaining 2 cups water to a boil in a medium saucepan. Reduce heat, and simmer until tender, 13 to 16 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer artichokes to a paper-towel-lined plate; let drain and cool. Discard lemon.
  • Meanwhile, prepare an ice-water bath. Bring a large saute pan of water to a boil. Add green asparagus, and cook until tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Transfer to ice-water bath, and let cool; reserve cooking liquid. Drain asparagus on a paper-towel-lined plate. Add fava beans to boiling cooking liquid, and cook until tender, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to ice-water bath, let cool, then squeeze beans from skins. Divide beans and vegetables among 8 plates. Sprinkle with mint and ricotta salata.
  • Make the dressing: Puree all the ingredients in a food processor until smooth. Drizzle over salads, and serve.

FAVA BEAN, PEA, AND ARTICHOKE STEW



Fava Bean, Pea, and Artichoke Stew image

Categories     Soup/Stew     Bean     Onion     Pork     Soy     Stew     Lemon     Artichoke     Pea     Winter     Gourmet

Yield Makes 4 main-course servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups shelled fresh fava beans (2 1/2 lb in pods) or shelled edamame (fresh soybeans)
2 lemons, halved
4 large artichokes (3/4 lb each)
2 oz guanciale (smoked pork jowl)* or pancetta, cut into 1/8-inch-thick matchsticks (1/2 cup)
2 cups thinly sliced onion
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 cups fresh or frozen peas (not thawed)
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh oregano
2 cups water
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice, or to taste

Steps:

  • Prepare fava beans:
  • Blanch beans in a 2-quart pot of boiling water 1 minute, then drain in a sieve and immediately transfer to a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking. Gently peel off skins (it's not necessary to peel edamame, if using).
  • Prepare artichokes:
  • Fill a large bowl with 4 cups cold water and squeeze juice from 2 lemon halves into bowl.
  • Cut off stem of 1 artichoke and reserve. Cut off top inch of artichoke with a serrated knife. Bend back outer leaves until they snap off close to base, then discard several more layers of leaves in same manner until you reach pale yellow leaves with pale green tips.
  • Cut remaining leaves flush with top of artichoke bottom using a paring knife, then quarter bottom. Cut out fuzzy choke and purple leaves with paring knife. Trim dark green fibrous parts from base and side of artichoke, then rub cut surfaces with a remaining lemon half and put artichoke bottom in bowl of acidulated water.
  • Trim 1/4 inch from end of reserved stem to expose inner core, then trim sides of stem down to pale inner core (don't worry if remaining stem is very thin). Rub cut surfaces with lemon half and put in bowl of acidulated water. Trim remaining artichokes, including stems, in same manner.
  • Prepare stew:
  • Drain artichokes and cut crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices, including stems. Cook guanciale and onion in oil in a 5-quart heavy pot over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until onion is softened, about 6 minutes. Add sliced artichokes, fava beans, and remaining ingredients and simmer, covered, stirring occasionally, until vegetables are tender, about 45 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose young, tender fava beans for the best flavor and texture.
  • If you can't find fresh fava beans, you can use frozen or canned beans. Just be sure to thaw or rinse them before using.
  • To remove the beans from the pods, simply pinch the seam of the pod and pop the beans out.
  • If you're using raw artichokes, be sure to trim the tough outer leaves and choke before slicing.
  • You can add other ingredients to this salad to taste, such as chopped red onion, crumbled feta cheese, or toasted pine nuts.
  • This salad is best served fresh, but it can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

This fava bean and raw artichoke salad is a delicious and healthy way to enjoy these spring vegetables. It's easy to make and packed with flavor, making it a perfect side dish or light lunch.
