HARICOTS VERTS WITH ROSEMARY



Haricots Verts with Rosemary image

Rosemary is huge in Spanish cooking and sometimes it turns up in unexpected places, like this side dish of string beans tossed with oil that's been perfumed with rosemary, garlic and lemon. Lemon-scented olive oil is available in many grocery stores now, but it can be pricey. If you're up for it, try my homemade version that follows this recipe. These are delicious at room temperature so they can be made a little ahead. That and the fact that there is no mayonnaise, makes them a lovely dish for a picnic or barbecue on a hot day.

Provided by Daisy Martinez

Categories     side-dish

Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1/2 pound haricots verts, ends trimmed
1 tablespoon lemon-olive oil, homemade, recipe follows or store-bought, or plain extra-virgin olive oil
1 sprig rosemary
Kosher or fine sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 lemon, zested
2 cups extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Slip in the beans and cook until bright green and crisp-tender. Remove the beans to an ice bath to shock, then drain and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Gently heat the olive oil and rosemary in a large, deep skillet over low heat until the rosemary is softened and very fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the rosemary sprig, raise the heat to medium-high, and add the string beans. Toss to coat with the rosemary-lemon scented oil until the beans are heated through. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Serve warm or at room temperature.
  • Lemon-Infused Olive Oil:
  • Put the lemon zest in a small pot and pour in 2 cups extra-virgin olive oil. Place over low heat and simmer for 15 minutes. Cool completely and transfer to a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Keep tightly sealed at room temperature for up to 2 weeks. Dress grilled chicken or any simply vegetable with the oil. When tomatoes are in season, a simple dish of sliced tomato dressed with this oil and a sprinkling of oregano is a meal unto itself.

TROUT WITH HARICOTS VERTS AND ALMONDS



Trout with Haricots Verts and Almonds image

Provided by Thomas Keller

Categories     Fish     Nut     Sauté     Low/No Sugar     Dinner     Almond     Trout     Green Bean     Sugar Conscious     Pescatarian     Wheat/Gluten-Free     Peanut Free     Soy Free     No Sugar Added     Kosher

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

Four 10-ounce boned whole rainbow trout
8 ounces haricots verts, stem ends removed
Kosher salt and freshly ground white pepper
Canola oil
10 tablespoons (5 ounces) unsalted butter
3/4 cup sliced blanched (skinned) almonds, lightly toasted
2 teaspoons minced Italian parsley
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice

Steps:

  • To pan-dress the trout:
  • With scissors, cut away the dorsal fin along the back of each fish. Hold each pectoral fin (the one closest to the head) and cut away and discard the gill plate and pectoral fin. Turn the fish on its back and open it up. Starting at the head, cut away the belly flap on each side, along with the pelvic fin. Remove the tail by cutting across the fish about an inch from the bottom of the tail. Set aside.
  • For the haricots verts:
  • Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Prepare an ice bath. Blanch the haricots verts in the boiling water for 2 to 6 minutes, or until they are barely tender, with a slight bite still left to them. Drain the beans and transfer to the ice bath to chill quickly, then drain again and dry on paper towels.
  • To complete:
  • Lightly sprinkle both sides of each trout with salt and pepper. If you have them, heat two 12-inch nonstick pans (special oval pans work best for fish) over medium-high heat. If you have only one pan, cook two trout first, cover, and keep them in a warm place while you cook the final two. Coat each pan with a light film of canola oil. Add the trout skin side down and sauté for about 4 minutes on one side only. The fish may still look undercooked at the top of the flesh, but the hot ingredients that will top them will complete the cooking.
  • Meanwhile, put the beans in a sauté pan, add 2 tablespoons of the butter and 1/3 cup water, and place over medium heat. Heat, stirring occasionally, until the water has evaporated and the beans are hot and glazed with butter. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Remove the pan from the heat and keep warm.
  • When the fish are done, cut off the heads and discard, if desired, and place the fish on serving plates. Drain the oil from one of the pans and return the pan to the heat. Add the remaining 8 tablespoons butter and a pinch of salt to the hot pan. When the butter begins to brown, add the almonds, shaking the pan to brown them evenly. When they are a rich golden brown, add the parsley and lemon juice.
  • Meanwhile, cover each trout with one-quarter of the beans.
  • Spoon the foaming butter and almonds over the haricots verts and around the edges of the plates.

HARICOTS VERTS WITH SHALLOTS



Haricots Verts With Shallots image

I am a green bean lover, but these little beauties have topped my list of favorites. One of Julia Child's pet peeves was undercooked green beans, a style of preparing them that became very popular as California Cuisine spread across the landscape. Yet the flavor of green beans does not blossom until they are adequately cooked, so be sure to test fresh green beans several times to be certain they are done. True haricots verts are about the size of pencil lead or matchsticks. You can sometimes find these in farmers' markets. If you are using bigger green beans, the cooking time will longer.

Haricots Verts with Mustard Vinaigrette image

Haricots verts pair well with lamb; their crunch and acidity balance the richness of the meat.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Salad Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 7

Coarse salt
1/2 pound haricots verts or other thin green beans, trimmed
1/2 teaspoon finely chopped shallot
1 1/2 teaspoons red-wine vinegar
Freshly ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon grainy or smooth Dijon mustard
1 1/2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath. Add salt to boiling water, then add haricots verts; cook just until beans are bright green all over, 1 to 2 minutes.
  • Drain beans; rinse immediately with cold water. Transfer to ice-water bath. When chilled completely, drain; pat dry.
  • Put shallot and vinegar in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper. Let stand 15 minutes. Whisk in mustard. Whisking constantly, pour in oil in a slow, steady stream until emulsified. Set aside until ready to dress beans; whisk before using.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender haricots verts. Look for beans that are bright green and snap easily when you bend them.
  • Trim the haricots verts. Cut off the tough ends of the beans.
  • Cook the haricots verts briefly. Overcooking will make them mushy. Steaming or sautéing are good cooking methods.
  • Use ripe plum tomatoes. They will have a sweeter flavor.
  • Season the dish to taste. Add salt, pepper, and other herbs and spices as desired.
  • Serve the dish immediately. Haricots verts are best when served fresh.
