Nutritional values

Broad beans are in great demand in Italy and France. But the light green kernels hidden in the pods are even more sought-after: not only do they almost melt on the tongue - they also contain plenty of protein and B vitamins. And the broad beans still have a considerable amount of fibre even without the shells!

Combined with roast meat or poultry, the thick beans make a great side dish; with bread it can also be a small, light main meal.
