GREEN BEANS WITH BALSAMIC-SHALLOT BUTTER

• Cook beans in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 6 minutes. Drain. Refresh under cold water; drain. Pat dry with paper towels. (Balsamic-shallot butter and beans can be made 1 day ahead. Cover separately; chill.)

Season with the 1/2 teaspoon salt and some pepper and serve immediately.
