Hi Bachi – You can also use lima beans, you might not be able to find lima beans fresh unless it’s summer, but I can always find them frozen. You are also likely to find fresh fava beans during the spring and summer.

Hi Cecilia – I’ve found fresh fava beans at Whole Foods and some of the local farmers markets. However, they are in season during spring-summer, and it is hard to find them fresh during other times of the year.
