Broad Bean Dip by Annie Smithers & Alice Oehr

This recipe poster is labour of love, both from chef Annie Smithers and artist Alice Oehr.

A recipe that may seem simple in its composition, is complex in taste and also in its journey to the plate. From planting and tending the plants, to picking the pods, to podding them, blanching them, skinning them, then crushing them, which Annie undertakes on her farm in Trentham, Victoria.

Alice has heroed the broad bean pods and their flowers in a positively verdant palette.
