About Fava beans with tahini
Fava Beans with Tahini is a flavorful dish originating from Middle Eastern and Mediterranean cuisines. It combines tender, nutrient-rich fava beans with creamy tahini, a paste made from ground sesame seeds. Often paired with lemon juice, garlic, and olive oil, the dish is a satisfying blend of earthy, nutty, and tangy flavors. Fava beans are an excellent source of protein, fiber, folate, and iron, making this dish both filling and nutritious. Tahini adds healthy fats and antioxidants but should be consumed in moderation due to its calorie density. Rich in plant-based protein and free from gluten, this dish is ideal for vegetarians and vegans. However, it may be high in sodium depending on preparation, so opt for fresh ingredients and control seasoning to maximize health benefits. Enjoy it as a dip, side, or spread for a wholesome addition to your meal.
