Vermouth Steamed Green Beans

Posted on December 19, 2014

In my last post I talked about the ways that dry vermouth can be used in cooking, and said I’d follow up with an example.  This is a fairly simple recipe, which uses the sweetness of the vermouth and shallots to compliment the flavor of the green beans.

  3. Add the green beans stir to coat with oil
  4. Allow the green beans to cook for about 5 minutes, sirring once or twice. Be sure to scrape the bottom of the pan to move the shallots, or they may burn
  5. Add the vermouth and cover the pan
