Tip

To blanch green beans, bring a medium pot of water to a boil.

Set a bowl of ice water next to the stove.

Add green beans to the boiling water.

Cook until bright green and crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.

Remove the beans with tongs and immediately plunge into ice water to stop the cooking process.
