  Near East foods seek Codex Alimentarius standards
Tehina, a sesame seed paste, ful medames, canned partially mashed fava beans, and humus, a dip of puréed chickpeas, have reached step five in the eight-step Codex Alimentarius standards setting process.
Ful medames, another Near Eastern food at step five in the Codex process, is made from broad beans and can be served at breakfast, lunch or dinner.
Ful medames is prepared typically at home by soaking fava, or broad beans, overnight in water that is five times the volume of the beans.

Curiously, although remnants of ful, which are a local variety of dried brown fava or broad bean, have been found in the earliest archaeological sites, the ancient Egyptians regarded them as unclean.
Medames is derived from the word for ashes, and refers to the traditional method of cooking the beans over coals, a slow and gentle method that suited the beans and could conveniently be done overnight, so that they were plump and tender in the morning, ready for breakfast.
Ful medames is not only served for breakfast, but to 'breakfast' on the evenings of Ramadan.
