Blanch Green Beans to Brighten Color
Before sautéing, frying, or stir-frying green beans, blanch them to brighten and set their color. Blanch by immersing the green beans in boiling water for only 2 minutes and then immerse in cold water immediately to stop the cooking process.
Blanch Green Beans to Brighten Color
Before blanching the green beans, prepare them as follows:
- Fresh bean preparation basically involves cleaning and trimming the beans. The less the bean is cut the sweeter and crisper is will be.
- Wash beans under cold water until free of dirt. To prepare for blanching and cooking, snap off the stem end of the bean. The stem end can also be cut off with a knife. The opposite end can also be cut off but it is not necessary.
- The beans can be left whole or cut at an angle into smaller sections.
