| 1. Shell the beans from the pods. | 2. Briefly blanch the beans, then shock with ice water and remove their skins – excepting those that are tiny (discard the tiny ones). | 3. Cut the bacon into 1/2-inch pieces, then parboil for 10 seconds to remove excess salt, and drain. | 4. In a heavy saucepan (one with a cover) over low heat, melt the butter and cook the bacon for two to three minutes (bacon should remain limp). | 5. Add the peeled fava beans, savory, water, and salt to taste. | 6. Cover tightly, increase temperature to high, and cook over high heat for a few seconds (for gas burners, that would be about 5-10 seconds, for standard electric coil burner that would be about 15-20), then decrease heat to low and cook, shaking pan occasionally, until tender, about 15 to 20 minutes. | 7. Remove pan from heat and allow to cool for 2 minutes. | 8. In a bowl whisk together well the cream, egg yolks, and pepper (to taste), then stir the mixture gently into the fava beans. | 9. Return the beans to low heat, stirring until the sauce just begins to thicken (coating the spoon thinly) – do not allow to boil. | 10. Transfer beans to serving dish, sprinkle with the lemon juice and chopped parsley, and serve. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
