Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a rolling boil. (2 minutes)

02

Step
3 mins

Add the green beans and cook uncovered until tender-crisp, about 3 minutes. (3 minutes)

03

Step
5 mins

Drain in a colander and immediately immerse in ice water for several minutes until completely cold to halt the cooking process. (5 minutes)

04

Step
3 mins

Once the green beans are thoroughly chilled, drain well and cut into 2-inch pieces. (3 minutes)

05

Step
5 mins

While the green beans are cooking, whisk together the peanut butter, brown sugar, soy sauce, peanuts, and miso paste in a mixing bowl until smooth and well combined. (5 minutes)

06

Step
2 mins

Once the green beans have been cut, gently fold them into the peanut sauce until evenly coated. Serve immediately or chill for later. (2 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, try toasting the peanuts before chopping and adding them to the sauce.
If you don't have miso paste, a tiny pinch of salt will do, but miso adds a wonderful umami depth.
Adjust the amount of brown sugar to your taste. Some prefer it sweeter, others more savory.
