GREEN BEANS WITH SMOKEY BACON VINAIGRETTE
Sweet bacon vinaigrette lovingly caressing green beans. Discovered this combination during Thanksgiving dinner when a bottle of bacon vinaigrette was dropped onto my plate. The result was delicious. I like to add a bit of Cheddar. Bacon, green beans, and Cheddar just goes really well together for me.

Steps:
- In a kettle of boiling salted water cook beans until al dente, about 3 minutes. Drain beans in a colander and plunge into a bowl of ice and cold water to stop cooking. Drain beans well.
- In a large heavy skillet cook bacon over moderate heat until crisp and transfer to paper towels to drain. Crumble bacon.
- Pour off all but 1 tablespoon fat from skillet and cook beans with vinegar and half of bacon over moderate heat, tossing, until tender. Season beans with salt and pepper and serve topped with remaining bacon.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, tender green beans: Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them.
- Trim the green beans: Cut off the ends of the beans, where the stem meets the pod.
- Blanch the green beans: This will help them retain their color and crispness. To blanch, boil the beans for 2-3 minutes, then immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Make the bacon vinaigrette: While the beans are blanching, cook the bacon until crispy. Then, whisk together the bacon fat, vinegar, mustard, honey, salt, and pepper.
- Toss the green beans with the vinaigrette: Once the beans are cool, toss them with the vinaigrette. You can serve them immediately or chill them for later.
Conclusion:
Green beans with warm bacon vinaigrette is a delicious and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The beans are crisp and tender, and the bacon vinaigrette adds a savory and flavorful touch. This dish is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table.
