Kovaios Schinoussa Fava, Katsouni Variety Legume 400g

Be the first to review this product
Traditionally harvested Katsouni fava beans from the small Cycladic island of Schinoussa, grown without pesticides or fertilizers by producer Kovaios.
SKU: EL2125

This is fava made from Katsouni, a local pea variety grown on the small Cycladic island of Schinoussa. The 400g pack contains 100% Katsouni, nothing else, sourced by producer Kovaios.

Origin and cultivation

Katsouni is grown specifically on Schinoussa, a small island in the Cyclades, where it is traditionally harvested by hand. According to the production details for this batch, the variety requires a lot of care and attention to ripen, and no pesticides or fertilizers are used in its cultivation. The result is a single-ingredient pantry staple: the label lists only Schinoussa fava as its content.

Ingredients and allergens

Ingredients: 100% Katsouni. As a legume, this fava bean product naturally contains fava beans as its allergen. It is suitable for vegan and vegetarian diets.

Preparing the fava

Rinse the fava in a sieve under cold running water until the water runs clear. Transfer it to a pot with about three times its volume of cold water, along with one finely chopped onion and, if you like, a bay leaf. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a gentle simmer. In the first few minutes, skim off the foam that rises to the surface to keep the flavour clean and the texture silky. Continue simmering uncovered until the beans soften into a smooth purée. This quantity serves 4-6, with a cooking time of approximately 45-60 minutes.
