In the garden I saw my first yellow beans!!!
I picked them immediately, the more you pick them and the more they seem to grow, and the plants still have so many flowers on!
Initially I thought of cooking them with a tomato sauce, but then I changed my mind: they are so fresh, and the first, so I just sautéed a shallot with olive oil, added the beans (washed and top and tailed, of course) and sautéed them gently for a little. Then I added a pinch of salt, put the lid on, lowered the heat, and let them cook in their own steam for about 10 minutes (checking and stirring from time to time). I didn't need to add any water, probably because they were so fresh, and they tasted perfect!

Cool looking beans! I've never seen yellow beans like that. They look like they would be very good! Do you have a big garden?
ReplyDeleteNot so big (we live in the forest and cannot cut trees), but big enough for the 4 of us :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like you live in a really neat place!
