How to cook dried mini split fava beans?
The 2 pound bag of dried mini split fava beans seemed like such a good idea. They've silently mocked me from the cabinet for over a year. No directions on the bag. Can I treat them like lentils (cook w/o soaking)? The few recipes I found through Google are for soaking & making into falafel batter. I'd prefer another cooking method.

Soupy base of the cooked beans which can be topped with tomato sauce, egg, cucumber, yogurt, feta, olives, et al.
