Ingredients:

  • water
  • a large pot with a lid
  • 1 Tbsp. salt
  • 1 lb. fresh green beans, ends snipped off (perfect project for a wiggly child)
  • 3 Tbsp. butter
  • 1/2 cup pinenuts, chopped
  • 1/2 tsp. kosher salt
  • 1 tsp. lemon juice
  • black pepper to taste

Directions:

Bring the water and salt to a boil. Add the beans, cover and let cook at fast simmer for about 5 - 7 minutes until nearly done. Drain and set beans aside.

Return the hot pot to the stove. Melt the butter on medium heat. Add the pine nuts and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Cook, stirring constantly until the butter browns and the pine nuts turn mostly golden or brown.

Remove the pot from the heat. Add the green beans and the 1/2 teaspoon salt. Stir to combine. Add the lemon juice and stir to combine. Add the pepper and additional salt if needed.

You forgot to remove the beans from the pot after draining. I was following your recipe until I got to the part where you said to add the green beans to the pot with the pine nuts.
