Fresh green beans can sometimes turn out too tough when cooked. As a home cooking enthusiast with years of experience perfecting vegetable sides, here's my reliable trick for tender results every time.
Wash them in hot water before cooking:
1. Rinse in hot water, not cold, before cooking.
2. Boil in simmering water.
3. Season to taste—try sautéing in butter or olive oil for a delicious finish.
That's it! Enjoy tender green beans perfected.
