Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 lb. Green bean fresh
  • 2 tsp. sesame seeds

For the miso glaze:

  • 1 1/3 Tbsp. white miso (1 Tbsp. + 1 tsp.)
  • 1 Tbsp. lemon juice fresh
  • 1 Tbsp. tamari
  • 2 tsp. pure maple syrup

Instructions

  1. Prepare green beans: Rinse your green beans and trim off the ends.
  2. Cook green beans: Place a large skillet (with lid), over medium-high heat, and add 1/2 cup water or vegetable broth. Once water/broth is hot, carefully add green beans and cover with lid. Steam for about 4-5 minutes or until beans are crisp-tender. (*Or use your own favorite method of cooking green beans.)
  3. Prepare the miso glaze: While the beans cook, prepare the glaze. Add all glaze ingredients to a medium mixing bowl. Whisk to combine until miso clumps are dissolved. (It may take a minute!)
  4. Combine: When green beans are crisp-tender, drain, and immediately add them to the bowl with miso glaze. Add sesame seeds. Toss well to thoroughly combine. The sauce runs thin, so drizzle any remaining glaze over the top of the beans before serving for maximum flavor!

Notes

  • *Cooking beans: Feel free to use your own favorite method of cooking green beans for this recipe. (You can boil them for 4-5 minutes, or use a steamer basket instead.)
  • Other flavors: Add freshly grated ginger or garlic to the glaze if desired.
