    Eerrmm, don't know if I am being stupid, but what does double-podded mean?!

    You can find out what they are-and see a photo-if you click on the underlined broad beans in the original. Good luck.

    served different types of bruschettas last night but I'd actually done it with normal frozen peas(not frozen when served obviously:-) and it was absolutely deli!!!

    Grew my own broad beans last year and made this recipe. It was outstanding. Cant wait for the new bean season to do again.

    My husband made this for my birthday as a starter with our own grown broadbeans and it was simply outstanding! He used a part baked ciabatta roll, still warm from the oven and it tasted divine! So light and fresh with the hint of mint and parmesan coming through. The texted of the broadbeans complimented the crunchy ciabatta perfectly. Will definitely make this again for snackage or light lunch. superb.

    These were OK, to me they needed a little fresh lemon juice as well as the olive oil.
