One of the only ways I like green beans! This comes from Japanese Home Style Cooking, a book given to me by a girl who lived with us. Prep time includes allowing the beans to stand in the soy sauce. Ingredients:
1/2 lb green beans |
1/2 teaspoon soy sauce |
3 tablespoons sugar-free chunky peanut butter |
1/2 tablespoon sugar |
1/2 tablespoon soy sauce |
1 tablespoon dashi (i use instant granules for this-about 1/4 teaspoon mixed in a tablespoon water) |
Directions:
1. String the beans and cook uncovered in plenty of boiling water until they turn bright green.
2. Do not overcook.
3. Drain, spread out to cool.
4. Cut diagonally into 1 inch (2cm) lengths.
5. Sprinkle half a teaspoon soy sauce over the beans and stand for 10 minutes.
6. Mix the beans into the dressing and serve.
7. DRESSING: Mix the peanut butter, sugar, soy sauce and dashi well.
