Categories     Vegetable

Time 9m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 lb green beans
1/4 cup butter
4 tablespoons pine nuts
4 cherry tomatoes
2 cups water

Steps:

  • cut steam end off of 1 lb fresh green beans. (use fresh frozen when out of season).
  • in medium sauce pan bring water to a boil. place green beans in mesh strainer and steam them. (should be hot all the way through while retaining garden fresh snap).
  • while beans are steaming, melt butter in med saute pan. when butter is lightly caramelized (just turning a light brown color) add pine nuts.
  • saute nuts till butter reaches preferred amount of caramelized color. (I like it to be well caramelized, some people don't though.).
  • if you want sauce a little thicker just stir in a pinch of arrow root. Be careful with this as it doesn't take much.
  • slice cherry tomatoes in fourths.
  • plate green beans all in one direction, spoon a little sauce over middle of beans, place a piece of sliced cherry tomato on top.
  • makes an attractive addition to any meal.

Tips:

  • Choose the right beans: For a smooth and creamy texture, use dried beans that have been soaked and cooked until tender. Canned beans can also be used, but they may not be as flavorful.
  • Use a high-quality nut butter: The type of nut butter you use will have a big impact on the flavor of your bean dip. Choose a nut butter that is made from roasted nuts and that has a smooth and creamy texture.
  • Add some spices: A little bit of spice can go a long way in enhancing the flavor of your bean dip. Try adding some cumin, chili powder, or garlic powder to taste.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are endless possibilities when it comes to making bean dips. Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors to create a dip that is uniquely your own.
