Broadbeans in the Mediterranean style:
Soak diried boradbeans in hot water overnight, remove skins.  Set them to
cook in fresh water 1 inch above the level of the beans, for an hour.  Add
thyme marjoram and parsley to pot.  Puree beans with a bit of cooking
liquid, season with salt and pepper. It should be thick!  Dry fry 2 onions,
and add 2 tbsp chopped sage leaves and a small apple peeled and cut into
cubes. Brown well.  Reheat the bean mix and top with the fried onion and
apple.
