Rinse the lupini beans well and soak them in water for 24 hours, changing the water several times.
Drain the beans, put them in a pot, and add enough water to cover.
Boil over medium heat for 75 minutes, until tender.
Add the salt and cook for another 15 minutes.
Let the beans cool in their cooking water, then drain.
Peel the skins as you eat and serve with lemon, cumin, and red pepper flakes.
💡 Tip: Change the soaking water several times before cooking the lupini beans; this balances their bitterness and strong aroma.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve cold in small bowls with lemon, cumin, and red pepper flakes.
