Really? Frenched Green Beans

[Guest guest]

Do Frenched Green Beans REALLY mean that I have to slice my green beans down the

middle and manually remove every little seed inside :-)

If so, I am definitely going to go light on the Frenched Green Beans!

I never bothered to take out the little bean seeds inside. I do take out the big

bean seeds, but only because my bird considers them a delicacy. If they don't

bother you, eat away! However, if they do bother you, you can buy frozen french

green beans that already are sliced and de-seeded.

Well, green beans can be purchased Frenched in the US. (Fresh

Frozen.)

For myself, I could slice the beans and cook them, but I didn't find that

I needed to be removing every seed. If you have issues with the seeds,

though, you might consider it. All in what you tolerate -- some people do

better with french-cut. SOme people do better with regular green beans,

un-cut.

Hi Anne-Marie,

I just thought I'd let you know what my most favorite recipe of the week is!

Lately I LOVE taking a couple handfuls of skinny green beans (the skinnier they

are, usually means the smaller the seeds too) and toss them in olive oil, salt &

pepper. Crushed garlic is tasty too. Then cook them on a cookie sheet at 400*F

for 30 minutes (check on them after 20 minutes). They are as tasty as french

fries. I like it when they get super limp, and a tad bit browned.

I got the idea from remembering eating " dry salted string beans " at Chinese Food

Restaurants (years ago, preSCD).

Totally yummy!
