Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender green beans: Look for beans that are bright green in color and snap easily when you bend them.
  • Trim the beans: Remove the tough ends of the beans before cooking.
  • Blanch the beans: This helps to preserve their color and crispness. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.

Immediately remove the beans from the boiling water and plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Use good quality sun-dried tomatoes: Look for sun-dried tomatoes that are plump and moist. Avoid tomatoes that are dry and brittle.
  • Toast the pine nuts: This helps to bring out their flavor. To toast the pine nuts, heat a small skillet over medium heat. Add the pine nuts and cook, stirring constantly, until they are golden brown and fragrant.
