What did you cook or eat today (September 2025)?

Well, they look whiteish on my monitor. Maybe light gray?

They are, indeed, broad beans. In the US I believe they call them fava beans, and probably remove the whitish outer skin to reveal the bright green fava bean inside.

Thanks!
I thought they looked like some kind of bean.
I've heard of fava beans thanks to Silence of the Lambs, but never looked them up to see what they looked like.

I was just thinking of that yesterday!
No idea why I was thinking SotL's... maybe it was a premonition for the bean question I asked.

Took the words from my fingertips.

Red beans and rice for the groomer receptionist, Sara. She eats for free and sells the plates...

Good looking meal.
Do you stay there and eat with them?
Or are you like a meals on wheels?

Thank you and no. The way they're busy there isn't a schedule to when they eat. I bring Sara her whatever and enough that the others can taste. Sarah then texts me a list of who wants what, if there's a choice, and I bring it the next day.

So far they're all happy and no one is hungry.

I'm making my sourdough bread boule, and I've just shaped it; now I need to cold ferment it. I can't decide if I want to do 24 or 48 hours on the ferment. I'm thinking more 48 because I want more of that sour taste. I even fed my starter with rye and whole wheat flour to inhibit more bacteria and lactic acid production to get a nice sour flavor.

The lactic acid is what makes it sour.
