For a richer flavor, use Gruyere cheese in place of Swiss. Freshly grated cheese melts more smoothly than pre-shredded. Add a pinch of nutmeg to the cheese sauce for a warm, aromatic note. If using fresh green beans, blanch them for 3-4 minutes before adding them to the casserole. To make ahead, assemble the casserole up to the baking step and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add 5-10 minutes to the baking time.
