I don't recommend this recipe. The soup was bland and the fava beans were undercooked.

This soup was a lot of work to make and it wasn't worth it. The soup was bland and the fava beans were tough.

I followed the recipe exactly and the soup turned out too salty. I think I would use less salt next time.

This soup was easy to make and very tasty. I used frozen fava beans and it still turned out great. I will definitely be making this again.
