Classic
Green Beans Almondine 1 1/2 lbs. green beans Saute almonds in butter until
lightly browned; do not burn. Steam the green beans. Toss with almonds
and season with salt and pepper before serving. Green Beans Almondine (with a hit of lemon) 1 lb. green beans Cut beans French style and boil until tender. Combine butter and almonds over low heat until golden. Remove from heat and add lemon juice. Pour over drained beans. **We'd
suggest that you never use anything other than FRESH lemon juice. We also
think we'd consider using a bit less juice and adding a bit of lemon zest.
Don't forget salt and pepper to taste. Green Beans Almondine (with an Asian flair) 2 lbs. fresh green beans Wash green beans. Cut off ends. Slice or cut the way you prefer. Steam until just done. Saute garlic in olive oil. Add almonds. Toss green beans in this mixture to coat. Add tamari or soy sauce to taste and serve. **Soy
vs tamari: Soy is best for everyday cooking such as stir frying or seasoning
vegetables, as it harmonizes and enhances without overpowering. Tamari,
with its stronger flavor, is traditionally used to season longer cooking
food such as soups, stews, and baked dishes. Green Beans Almondine (with mushrooms) 1 lb. fresh or frozen green
beans Prepare beans for cooking. Simmer in small amount of water for 10 minutes. In skillet, saute mushrooms in butter until brown. Add salt and almonds. Add beans to skillet. Toss well, simmer 4 minutes. Correct seasoning to taste. **The
secret to having mushrooms "brown" is not adding salt while
cooking them. When you add salt the mushrooms give off water and don't
brown, so hold off on adding salt until you finish the dish. Try
