Another way with Beans and Cheese

Ingredients

Preparation

  1. For each fat handful of green beans, I allow about 2 1/2 ounces (75g) of cheese, such as Wigmore, Waterloo, or any of the other white-bloomed, melting-textured cheeses. If I can get nothing “local,” then I use Taleggio or Camembert. Cut the cheese into small pieces. As soon as the beans are cooked and drained, toss them with the little cubes of cheese. The heat from the beans will melt the cheese so that it forms a thick, savory dressing.
