      Still waiting for the beans to soften up. Adding water, cook down, repeat. May be a few more days yet 🙂

        I was wondering how you were making out. It helps if you shout “porra” at the beans if they’re not cooking down

          I've shouted a lot of things, but not yet "porra"....

            Replaced my 30? year old stovetop today.

            Was all set to buy induction and had one on order. We had someone come in to service our fridge and I asked him if it was a good idea. He replied, for me it’s great because of all the $ you’ll have to spend servicing it. Hahah canceled that order and went with gas. Nothing particularly wrong with my old one except the knobs worn out and broken and I wanted more space to cook stuff.

            Pretty excited about this one!

                  @Chibs you have to service an induction stove top? Never had to have mine done yet.
                  Although Murphys Law states that it will probably fail shortly after I post this.
                  We don’t have gas out my way so unfortunately we don’t have a choice.

                    @Rustygate37 thanks, yours is awesome & huge! I wanted induction originally. Demoed one and had a pot of water boiling in 40 seconds which was so neat! Idk.. Everyone has an opinion and I’m sure most people with inductions have zero problems.

                      Yeah I don’t know the go, wish I had gas like yours though. The stars look cool.
                      Induction can be annoying, especially if a small amount of boiling water spills over. It just cuts it off and goes into safety mode

                      As for gas we don’t even have running water from a mainline so…. It’s just a pipe dream

                        I shamefully have to admit defeat. Despite 3 days soaking and the best part of 3 days cooking, I can't get the Fava to get soft enough to be nice to eat.

                        Back to the drawing board.......

                          @Giles PORRA!! 3 day soak w a 3 day cook and still not softening? You might have been sold a bag of rocks. Regardless, my dad and vovo would have admired the effort. I think canned favas might have to be the route if there is a next time.

                                      Oh yeah especially during summer… dinner is opening a can of Portuguese sardines, some bread, tomatoes again and a lemon garlic sauce… and a ultra cold bottle of Friuli Pinot Grigio, of course 😁
