Tomatoes and Haricots Verts with Anchovies image

This time anchovies are not optional. They're an integral ingredient here, and it's worth seeking out quality brands. We love the oil-packed ones from Ortiz, Agostino Recca, and Merro.

I'm not sure what went wrong, but my dish turned out really bland. I think I might have used too many tomatoes.

This dish was a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try it again with less olive oil.

I made this dish exactly as the recipe said, but it turned out too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less anchovies next time.
