An explanation of how you can get a lot more from simple ingredients by adding a pairing flavour. This one goes exceptionally well when served as a side to roast pork. Check your beans that they feel crisp and not leathery (Do they snap easily, and leak a bit of juice? If not, don't buy them)
Ingredients:
30 -40 fresh green beans
5 -6 drops almond extract
1 ounce slivered almonds
Directions:
1. Clean the beans, tip and toe them, and cut to 1 lengths.
2. Boil salted water in a pot and add the almond extract when boiling.
3. Place the beans and almond slivers in a steaming basket and cook until just about done (still some crunch left in the bean, but not chewy).
