Instructions

1
Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 3–4 minutes, until bright green and crisp-tender with just a slight bite remaining.
2
Drain the green beans in a colander and immediately run cold water over them for about 1 minute, until cool to the touch. Set aside.
