These are extremely popular throughout Portugal. Any café shop or bar will have them. They are perfect with a beer on the side. I didn't add any amounts because there isn't any. Adjust the quantity according to how many beans you have. I like a lot of garlic so for 1kg worth of beans I probably add 2 bulbs of garlic give or take. If you prefer you can add fresh chopped peppers.

Steps

1

Drain the beans of their liquid and place the lupini beans in a colander and run them under running cold water. Rinse the beans well under the water.
2

Transfer the beans to a large tupperware box and fill with water. Add enough water to cover the beans comfortably.
3

Add the sea salt, chopped hot peppers and a good amount of chopped garlic.
4

Keep in the fridge for up to 4 weeks.
5

Now to serve, you don't eat the outer shell. You first bite into an individual beans, enough to make a dent and the end of the bean you are holding you squeeze the bean out and eat and throw the outer shell away.
6

The longer you leave the beans in the water the tastier they become.
