Fava beans have a short growing season. In most parts of the country they're at their peak right now. Spoon the soup into bowls, drizzle with olive oil and serve, passing the cheese at the table.

Steps to make Fava beans and broccoli rape pasta:
- In a large pot bring water to a boil. In the meanwhile trim the broccoli rape by snapping stems off, leaving florets and about an inch of a stem with a leave.
- Blanch the broccoli(no more than 1 min) in the boiling water and set aside. Keep the same water for cooking your pasta. - In a large pan heat the oil and add anchovies and garlic, simmer until anchovies melt.
