SUPER SIMPLE SUCCOTASH

Steps:

• Place a large skillet over medium heat, then add the bacon and cook until the fat has rendered and the bacon has crisped, about 10 minutes.

Stir in the basil and red wine vinegar, season with salt and pepper and serve.

FRENCH-STYLE SUCCOTASH

Steps:

• Bring 1 quart of well-salted water to a boil in a large stockpot or Dutch oven and add butter beans. If they are fresh, cook for about 4 minutes. Frozen beans will need to cook for 8 minutes. Test for tenderness and then remove from heat, drain, and set aside.
• Meanwhile, over medium heat, melt the butter in a large skillet. Add the bacon and cook until crisp, about 7 minutes.
• Stir in onion, celery, and bell pepper, stirring to coat with butter and bacon fat. Cook until tender, about 5 minutes.
• Add the corn, garlic, and scallions and cook an additional 5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
• Gently fold in the butter beans, then add cream, tarragon, salt and pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook uncovered for 5 minutes, or until succotash is heated through and the cream has started to thicken.
• Taste and adjust seasoning, if necessary. Sprinkle with additional tarragon before serving.
