4 Tbsp butter, room temperature
2 lb green beans, trimmed
salt and pepper, to taste

I'm allergic to nuts, so I used olive oil instead of butter. The green beans were still very tasty.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. The green beans were cooked perfectly and the butter sauce was divine.

I've never been a big fan of green beans, but this recipe changed my mind. The balsamic shallot butter was so good that I ate all the green beans on my plate.

I'm not a fan of shallots, so I substituted chopped onion instead. The green beans were still delicious.

These green beans were a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll reduce the amount of balsamic vinegar next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my green beans turned out mushy. I think I'll try this recipe again with fresh green beans.
