STEWED ROMANO BEANS WITH TOMATOES

Romanos hold up to longer cooking, as you'll see when you make this dish. Even when they soften, after 20 minutes of braising or stewing, they still have plenty of texture, their color remains good and they become somewhat juicy. If you can't find romano beans use regular green beans. Just reduce cooking time to 15 minutes.
