July 2, 2011 Dragon Tongue Beans
A CookTale
My friend Mike Jenkins arrives with a box of bean & raves about them. I raise an eyebrow & question, “a new bean”?
Mike answers you’ll see, just don’t overcook them. Keep a crunch. I did & they were truly terrific. But with an unusual name, Dragon Tongue. After many evenings of standing in front of the stove, they came to the rescue to save a simple dinner. Cath enjoyed them with her steamed Broccoli.
INGREDIENTS
1 Pound of Dragon Beans ( if you can find them)
Sea or Kosher Salt & Black Pepper
1-1/2 TB of EVOO
METHOD
1. Simply steam the Beans for no more than 2 or 3 minutes. (Almost uncooked or to taste.)
2. Drain & transfer to a mixing bowl.
3. Toss with the EVOO & sprinkle Salt & Pepper.
Thanks Mike they were very tasty.
