GREEN BEAN AND CORN ALMONDINE
The classic French dish of green beans and almonds gets a fun update with the addition of corn, which lends extra sweetness, chewy texture and pops of golden color. The simply prepared dish allows the tender green beans and corn to shine in a velvety garlic- and thyme-infused butter sauce. The nutty flavor and delicate crunch of toasted sliced almonds round out the dish. (Haricots verts also work beautifully here, in place of the green beans, but decrease the steaming time to 3 minutes.) This quick and versatile salad pairs well with many different foods and can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 350 degrees. Spread almonds on a baking sheet and bake until golden, 6 to 7 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a large (12-inch) deep skillet with a lid, heat oil over medium. Add garlic and stir until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add green beans and thyme, season with salt and pepper, and toss to evenly coat in the oil. Add 1/2 cup of water, cover and steam until beans are softened, about 5 minutes. Stir in butter and corn, and cook, stirring occasionally, until corn and green beans are tender and glazed in the sauce, 4 to 5 minutes. Discard the thyme sprigs, and season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer beans and corn to a large platter and spoon over any remaining sauce. Garnish with the toasted almonds and more black pepper.
Tips:
- Choose fresh green beans: Look for beans that are bright green and crisp. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
- Trim the green beans properly: Trim the ends of the green beans, but leave about 1/2 inch of the stem intact. This will help the beans retain their nutrients and flavor.
- Blanch the green beans: Blanching the green beans in boiling water for a few minutes will help them retain their color and crispness.
- Use a good quality butter: The butter is one of the key ingredients in this recipe, so make sure to use a good quality butter that has a rich flavor.
- Don't overcook the green beans: Green beans are best when they are cooked just until they are tender-crisp. Overcooking will make them mushy.
- Add the almonds at the end: Adding the almonds at the end of the cooking process will help them retain their crunch.
- Serve the green bean casserole hot: This dish is best served hot, so make sure to cook it just before you're ready to eat.
Conclusion:
Green bean casserole is a classic American dish that is perfect for any occasion. It's easy to make, delicious, and always a crowd-pleaser. With its creamy sauce, crispy almonds, and tender-crisp green beans, this dish is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
