FRENCH GREEN BEANS WITH HAZELNUT BUTTER

Steps:

• Make the compound butter. Mix the butter, shallots, lemon zest and hazelnuts in a small bowl until combined. Refrigerate while the beans are cooking.
• Steam the beans. Place the beans in a sauté pan and sprinkle with salt. Add the water. Cover and cook over medium-high heat for 6 minutes. Remove the lid and continue to cook for about 2 minutes, until all of the water boils off. Immediately remove from heat.
• Finish the dish. Spoon butter mixture over the beans. Using a pair of tongs, toss the beans until all of the butter is melted and the beans are coated. Serve immediately.

• Bring to a simmer, cover with lid or foil, for 7-8 minutes to steam.
• Remove lid, bring the liquid to a boil and reduce just a little. Mix beans and top with lemon zest, hazelnuts and a drizzle of optional truffle oil.
• Taste, adding more salt if needed! Serve immediately.

GREEN BEANS AND MANGETOUT WITH HAZELNUTS AND ORANGE

Steps:

• Bring plenty of water to the boil in a large saucepan (you need a lot of space for the veggies, to preserve the colour). Blanch the beans in the water for 4 minutes, the drain them in a colander and run them under tap water until cold. Leave to drain and dry. It is really important to make sure that they get completely cold so that they don't continue to cook - no-one wants overcooked green beans! Repeat this with the mangetout, but only cook for 1 minute (see above note).
• Mix the garlic and chives with the oils, zest and a tbsp or so of orange juice, and season with a pinch of salt and pepper. Toss the dressing with the green beans and mangetout, and scatter the hazelnuts over the top.

ZESTY GREEN BEANS WITH TOASTED HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Green beans: Bring a large saucepan of heavily salted water (as "salty as seawater") to a boil over high heat. Meanwhile, prepare an ice bath in a large bowl. When the water is boiling, add the green beans and cook until just crisp-tender and bright green, 3-4 minutes. Use the strainer to immediately transfer them to the ice bath to stop the cooking. Set aside while you make the vinaigrette. (Note: Green beans can be blanched 1 day ahead. After cooling, drain, wrap in a clean dish towel, and store in the refrigerator.)
• Vinaigrette: In a small bowl, stir the honey and vinegar together with a small rubber spatula. Add the hazelnut oil in a slow stream, whisking constantly, until all the ingredients are combined. Season with salt and pepper, whisking as you go and tasting between additions.
• Assemble: Line a bowl with paper towels. Transfer the cooled green beans from the ice bath into the bowl; pat them dry and remove paper towels. Spoon half of the vinaigrette over the green beans and use your hands to mix well; taste, then add more vinaigrette as needed. Season with salt and pepper, then transfer to a serving plate.
• Garnish: Stack the basil leaves, then roll the stack like a cigar. Finely slice crosswise to create thin ribbons of basil. (This is called a "chiffonade.") Top the green beans with the basil, followed by the hazelnuts; finish by zesting the lemon directly over the green beans. Serve immediately.

BROWN BUTTER & HAZELNUT GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• You'll begin by toasting and skinning the hazelnuts. Spread the hazelnuts out on a pan evenly and bake at 350°F for about 10-15 minutes on the middle rack. The skins should begin to blister and the nuts should have a slightly darker color to them. Keep a close eye on them because you don't want to burn the nuts! (While the nuts roast, trim the green beans and start the water.)
• Once you pull the hazelnuts out of the oven, wrap them up in a kitchen towel for about a minute. This will slightly steam them and loosen the skins. Rub them all together inside the towel and discard the loose skins. Don't worry if some skins stay on. Essentially you just want to get rid of the majority so they don't get stuck in your teeth! Coarsely crush up the nuts and set aside.
• Bring 3 quarts of water to a boil with about 2 tablespoons salt, or enough water to cover the beans. Once the water boils, throw the beans in and boil for 3-4 minutes. Test one of the beans for tenderness and preferred doneness. I tend to boil for the shortest period of time because I like crunchy beans, and you don't want to overcook them because you'll lose that delicious snap. Strain out the water and set aside.
• Brown butter is simple but delicate. Using a medium sized skillet, put 3 tbsp of butter in the pan over medium heat. The butter will melt and start to bubble as it rises in temperature.
• Reduce heat to medium-low, add the crushed hazelnuts and cook in butter until fragrant, about 2-3 minutes. You're looking for a sweet spot of golden brown butter. Remove from direct heat.
• Transfer the green beans to the pan with the butter and hazelnuts to get everything to serving temperature while stirring to coat the beans. Salt and pepper to taste, mix it up. Place into a serving bowl and garnish with a fair amount of chèvre. Enjoy thoroughly.

BROCCOLI & GREEN BEANS WITH TOASTED HAZELNUT BUTTER

Steps:

• Bring a large pan of water to the boil. Add the beans and simmer for 1 min, add the broccoli and then cook for 3 mins more until tender. Drain.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan and gently toast the hazelnuts until golden brown. Add the butter, let it melt and foam for just a few mins, but don't let it burn, then season well. Tip the drained vegetables into the frying pan and toss in the butter until everything is coated.

GREEN BEANS WITH HAZELNUT-LEMON BUTTER

Steps:

• In a saucepan, cover beans with water; cover and cook until crisp-tender, about 15 minutes. Meanwhile, in a small saucepan over medium-high heat, brown the butter. Add the hazelnuts, lemon juice, parsley, basil and salt; heat through. Drain beans; add the butter mixture and toss to coat. Serve immediately.

GREEN BEANS WITH SHALLOTS, HAZELNUTS, AND TARRAGON

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Spread hazelnuts on a baking sheet and toast in the oven, tossing halfway through, until skins are splitting and nuts are fragrant, about 15 minutes. Transfer to a bowl to steam and cool, then rub the nuts with a kitchen towel to remove their skins. Roughly chop the hazelnuts and set aside.
• In a large sauté pan over medium-high heat, melt 1 tablespoon butter. Add shallots and cook, tossing, until lightly golden and softened, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove and set aside.
• Reduce heat to medium, and add 1/2 cup water, remaining 2 tablespoons butter, salt, and pepper to the same pan. Add the haricots verts and toss to coat. Cover pan and cook, tossing occasionally, until bright green and crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Remove cover, raise heat to high and cook until the water evaporates and the beans are glazed, about 3 minutes more. Toss green beans with tarragon, lemon zest, hazelnuts, and sautéed shallots. Serve immediately.
