Instructions
The first step will be to wash green beans thoroughly and trim them (just get them into one pile in such a way that stems will be at the same side and cut them all off at once with a knife).
Bring a large pan of water to a boil. Always pay attention to the amount of water that you put into a pan, as it should completely submerge green beans.
When the water boils, add salt to taste, and then add fresh green beans to the boiling water. Cook fresh green beans for 5 to 8 minutes. You can always test the readiness of the beans by tasting them but be careful not to burn yourself.
Prepare a large bowl with cold water; you can even add ice. You will need it to stop the process of cooking. So, when you know that you have your green beans ready, take them out of the pan with boiling water and put them into the bowl with cold water. Leave them for several minutes to cool down and then drain. That is it. Here you have a method that will make your green beans taste good.
