Steps:
- Rinse the beans, discard the ends and snap them in half or smaller pieces to your liking.
- If desired you can steam the beans in advance. Prepare a double boiler with 2 inches of water in the bottom pot. Bring to a simmer and then place the green string beans in the top basket. Cover with a lid and steam for 10 to 15 minutes or until desired tenderness is achieved. Check after 10 minutes to make sure you don't overcook the beans. Remove from the steam and transfer to a bowl. Rinse with ice cold water to stop the cooking process at this point. Refrigerate until ready to use. (Alternatively you can use the 1- pot method below but take good care not to overcook them).

- Use fresh, seasonal vegetables: Fresh vegetables are more flavorful and nutritious than frozen or canned vegetables. If you can, try to use vegetables that are in season.
- Don't overcook the vegetables: Overcooked vegetables lose their nutrients and flavor. Cook them just until they are tender-crisp.
- Add herbs and spices to taste: Herbs and spices can add a lot of flavor to your soup. Experiment with different combinations to find what you like best.
- Serve the soup with a crusty bread or crackers: A crusty bread or crackers are the perfect accompaniment to green bean and carrot soup. They help to soak up the broth and add a bit of texture.
