Green Bean Recipes This is a German green bean
recipe attributed to The Art of German Cooking by Betty Wason. It's a wonderful
sweet and sour green bean recipe and would be a perfect use for your fresh, ripe,
flavorful pears. Remember, the best way to assure any recipe success is using
the freshest and best ingredients you can get.
Pears, Green Beans and Bacon (Birnen, Bohnen und
Speck) 1 lb. green beans, trimmed and broken into pieces
6 firm ripe pears, peeled, cored and sliced 1/2 cup water 1 thin sliver
lemon peel 1 tsp. salt 6 slices bacon 1/4 cup sugar 2 tbsp. white
vinegar 1 tsp. fresh lemon juice Place the pear slices in a sauce
pan with the water and lemon peel. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer
uncovered for 5 minutes. Then stir in the green beans and salt and continue cooking.
Meanwhile, fry the bacon in a skillet. When the bacon is crisp, remove it
to a paper towel to drain. Pour off all but about 2 tablespoons of the fat remaining
in the skillet. Add the sugar, vinegar and lemon juice to the bacon fat in the
pan. Simmer for 3 minutes. Pour this sauce over the pears and beans and cook until
tender. Crumble the bacon and add it to the beans just before serving.

Thanksgiving Dinner Recipes, Turkey Help
I took the turkey out of the freezer and put it into the refrigerator two days before Thanksgiving so that it would thaw thoroughly. I also kept an eye on it to make sure it was thawing. The day before Thanksgiving I got the turkey out, removed the giblets and rinsed it. I put the turkey back in the refrigerator.
