STRING BEANS WITH SHALLOTS
Steps:
- Blanch the string beans in a large pot of boiling salted water for 1 1/2 minutes only. Drain immediately and immerse in a bowl of ice water.
- Heat the butter and oil in a very large saute pan (12-inch diameter) or large pot and saute the shallots on medium heat for 5 to 10 minutes, tossing occasionally, until lightly browned. Drain the string beans and add to the shallots with 1/2 teaspoon salt and the pepper, tossing well. Heat only until the beans are hot.
- If you're using regular string beans, blanch them for about 3 minutes, until they're crisp-tender.

Steps:
- Prepare the scallion garnish: Finely slice the scallions on an angle and drop them into a large bowl with ice and water - this will make the scallion threads curl up nicely so they look like ribbons. Set aside.
- Wash green beans under cold running water. Cut off the root ends and discard. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat. Add the beans and blanch until bright green, about 2 minutes. Shock in ice water then drain in a colander.
- Heat a large wok over high heat. Add the peanut oil, then add the shallots, garlic, ginger and chile. Stir the mixture around so it fries in the oil and gets fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the green beans and toss a couple of times to coat everything evenly. Saute for a couple of minutes so the beans get a little caramelization. Add the soy sauce and cook for 1 to 2 more minutes; the beans should still be nice and crisp. Transfer to a large platter and garnish with drained scallion curls.

SHALLOT SAUTEED GREEN BEANS
Sautéing the green beans with shallots after blanching make this dish a delicious alternative to just steaming or boiling. Toss in some cooked, crumbled bacon or sauteed mushrooms to add your own flair. Great with mashed potatoes and fried chicken, or add some sesame oil and pair with steamed rice.

Steps:
- Bring 6-7 quarts of water to a boil in a large, deep pot. When at a rolling boil, add two pinches of salt.
- Carefully add the washed and trimmed green beans.
- Stir gently for 30-45 seconds, or until the beans turn a bright green color. The ideas is not only to blanch them, but to partially cook them.
- After 30-45 seconds have passed, drain beans into colander. Toss beans to remove any excess water and leave to drain.
- Melt butter over low heat. When foaming subsides, add olive oil. Add the shallots in handfuls, separating the layers while sprinkling into the pan.
- Allow the shallot to cook over medium heat until it becomes slightly translucent.
- Add beans, boost heat to medium high. Toss the beans with the butter and oil until all are coated.
- Continue to toss the beans every few minutes, or until they are cooked through and a little browned. Add salt and pepper to taste.

GREEN BEANS AND GREENS WITH FRIED SHALLOTS
These delightfully al dente green beans are a quick-cooking nod to the green bean casserole. There is no cream of mushroom soup, but there are fried shallots. Torn leafy greens, briefly sautéed with a bit of butter and a few melted anchovies (which can be omitted for vegetarians), are added to the beans to wilt at the last minute for a very green-on-green side. Depending on what else you're serving, this could almost count as a salad. Be sure to finish with plenty of acid and flaky salt.

Steps:
- Heat oil and shallots in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook, swirling the skillet occasionally, until shallots are lightly browned and starting to crisp, 5 to 6 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer shallots to a paper towel; season with salt and pepper.
- Transfer half of the oil from the pan to a small bowl. Return the skillet to medium-high heat, and add green beans. Season with salt and pepper and cook, without tossing, until lightly charred and blistered on one side, 3 to 4 minutes. Give them a toss, and cook, another 3 to 4 minutes, until just tender and cooked through.
- Add butter and anchovies, and season with salt and pepper. Add kale, and toss to coat until greens are wilted and tender and butter is melted, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove from heat, and add vinegar, tossing to coat. Season with salt, pepper and more vinegar, if needed.
- Transfer to a large bowl or platter and drizzle with reserved shallot oil. Scatter with fried shallots and flaky salt, and serve.

Steps:
- Wash and cut end of green beans. Bring to boil a pot of water and salt it as this is the only time to really flavor the green beans -- Boil them for about 8-10 minutes then drain water.
- In a separate pan -- put olive oil and butter -- medium heat as not to burn. Pour green beans, shallot- sliced thinly, pre-sliced mushrooms and garlic and sautee for about 5 minutes! You can add more garlic if you want!
- Make sure green beans are still firm.not to mushy. Add some more seasonings to taste after you are finishing the sautee as this will bring out the water from the mushrooms and the sweetness of the shallot !
- Enjoy!

Steps:
- Place the slivered almonds in a dry skillet over low heat, and cook and stir constantly until the almonds are lightly toasted, 3 to 5 minutes. Watch carefully, because they burn easily. Remove the almonds and set aside.
- Heat butter in a skillet over medium-low heat, and cook and stir the shallots and red bell pepper until softened, about 8 minutes. Sprinkle the shallot mixture with sugar, salt, and pepper, and reduce heat to low. Cover, and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until the sugar dissolves and the shallots caramelize, 5 to 8 minutes.
- Place a steamer insert into a saucepan, fill with water to just below the bottom of the steamer, and bring the water to a boil. Add the green beans, cover, and steam until just tender enough to pierce with a fork, 7 to 8 minutes. Drain the green beans, place them into the skillet with the shallot mixture, mix well, and gently stir in the toasted almonds.

Steps:
- Remove stem ends from beans, put beans in a bowl and cover with water. Set aside until water comes to room temperature.
- Drain beans, then cook in a gallon of boiling salted water until done, 3 to 5 minutes depending on thickness. Beans are done when they still have a slight raw flavor but are crisp and bright green.
- As soon as beans are done, remove from pot and shock in ice water. Drain, and if desired, refrigerate until ready to use.
- To prepare: Place beans and remaining ingredients in a large saute pan and place over medium-high heat.
- Saute, stirring occasionally, until water is evaporated and butter coats beans and cooks shallots, about 2 minutes.
- Continue sauteing 1 to 2 minutes (possibly longer if beans are cold from the refrigerator) or until beans are heated through. Adjust seasoning to taste ans serve.
Tips:
- Choose fresh, young green beans. Look for beans that are bright green in color and have no blemishes. Avoid beans that are limp or have brown spots.
- Trim the green beans. Remove the ends of the beans and any tough strings. You can use a sharp knife or a kitchen shears.
- Blanch the green beans. This will help to preserve their color and crispness. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Drain the beans and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Sauté the shallots. Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallots and cook, stirring frequently, until they are softened and translucent, about 5 minutes.
- Add the green beans and cook. Add the green beans to the skillet with the shallots and cook, stirring frequently, until they are heated through, about 5 minutes.
- Season to taste. Add salt, pepper, and any other desired seasonings to taste.
- Serve immediately. Sautéed green beans are best served immediately, while they are still hot and crisp.
Conclusion:
Sautéed green beans with shallots is a quick and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The beans are crisp and tender, the shallots add a mild onion flavor, and the seasonings bring it all together. This dish is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it is also a delicious and satisfying snack.
