Broad beans are delicious for only one season, and it passed in a flash. Therefore, there is a saying among the folks that "three days of tenderness, three days of old, and three days of neither old nor tender. Mom loves broad beans, and we also like broad beans; when we were young, Mother cooks it for us; now she is old, then I will cook it for her elders.
The fresh broad beans that have just been put on the market are tender, sweet and waxy. They have a very good taste. Every time I buy it is several kilograms. After peeling off the shell, without adding a grain of oil and sugar, I simply boil it in water. It takes ten minutes. The delicacy is right in front of your eyes; the taste is green and does not turn yellow. It is ready to serve. I feel that it is not addictive to eat with chopsticks. Instead, I just start with it, one bite, and even the skin is reluctant to vomit, the taste is particularly delicious; one pot Broad beans soon disc. After eating broad beans for half a lifetime, I personally feel that this is the best way to eat broad beans. Without adding a grain of oil and sugar, one bite at a time will relieve hunger and fullness. If you want to try something new, come and try it~
