1. Bring a pot of generously salted water to a boil. While the water heats, remove the fava beans from their long pods. Add the shelled fava beans to the boiling water and cook until bright green and tender, about 3 minutes. Drain and immediately rinse under ice cold water until cold.
2. Decide if you would like to peel off the “second skin” ( see post above). If so do this now.
3. In a pint jar, combine the vinegar, olive oil, garlic, herbs, salt, and pepper. Place a lid on the jar and shake to combine the marinade. Place the fava beans into the jar, replace lid and shake to coat the fava beans. Refrigerate until ready to use.
4. To keep for longer, up to 2-3 weeks in the fridge, just make sure the oil and vinegar marinade completely covers the beans, adding equal parts oil and vinegar, a tablespoon at a time, pressing down on beans, until completely submerged.
