Is there a good source for dried white fava beans? The only ones I have
found are green (from a supermarket that carries a wide variety of
Latin-American foods).
Alternatively, are there other beans that would be a reasonable
substitute,
like large limas? The recipe I am interested in reproducing is for a
sweet
bean pottage I found in "Curye on Inglysch" (section II recipe 81). It
calls for "whit benes".
Please copy replies to me at mlecin at superlink.net; I'm not subscribed to

Many thanks,
