How to double pod broad beans

I love broad beans but some people don't, I think that is because most people don't double pod them! If you don't they just look grey and their grey skins are not very inviting. So give double podding a try, you can then use them in soups, pasta dishes and much more. My next blog post will be a  and broad bean bruschetta which is a great and healthy meal.


  • First remove the beans from their pods.
  • Put boiling water into a pan and boil the broad beans for 5 minutes, then drain.
  • Place the beans into a bowl of cold water.
  • Then you can just pop the beans out of their skins, out will come 2 halves of bright green broad beans.
