reminder that now is the time to sew your snap peas and fava beans. I got a couple little favas growing. I don't think they care about frost. they're a little repulsive to eat but they're about the only thing that fruits that early, other than the snap peas

If you have the time and patience for it, you can do what my wife is doing with the bumper crop of fava beans we got from her mom last summer and make a gigantic gently caress off crock of miso with it. By the time summer rolls around again, we can jar it and we'll have probably four or five spaghetti sauce sized jars of homemade umami goodness, plus all the tamari we've been drawing off. The fermentation drastically changes the consistency and flavor, so if you don't like favas on their own, this is a good way to process them into something healthy and outstandingly delicious that will last you quite a while and improve many dishes.

Edit:

Also, my buddy wanted to help out with the Mutual Aid Monday meal distribution my wife and I do with our local DSA to feed unhoused folks at the park, and he asked what he could make that's cheap and easy to do in bulk and ahead of time, so I sent him a three bean salad recipe and told him to 5x it. 15 cans of beans and one crosstown drop off later and my fridge is currently housing at least 60 servings of hearty bean salad with onion, cucumber, and parsley to accompany the pile of cheese tortellini and red sauce some other folks are bringing. Beans rule, beans are great, beans are versatile, all hail beans!

This delicious bean salad is extremely cheap and easy to make in large batches, keeps until you finish it, and seriously it's so nice just have a bunch of this in the fridge as a zero-thought healthy answer when you're feeling hungry for something tasty and filling but have zero desire to prepare anything. You can make it with whatever kinds of beans. I bet you could mix some brown rice or quinoa in with it and be off to the drat races. My friend made a huge container of it for our homeless food distribution thing and everyone loved it. God bless the almighty bean!!
