  • Blanch the green beans: Blanching the green beans helps to preserve their color and crispness. To blanch, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Immediately transfer the green beans to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Cook the green beans with marjoram: There are many ways to cook green beans with marjoram. You can sauté them in a pan with olive oil and garlic, or roast them in the oven with olive oil, salt, and pepper. You can also add marjoram to soups, stews, and casseroles.
  • Serve the green beans: Green beans can be served as a side dish or as part of a main course. They are delicious served with grilled meats, fish, or chicken. You can also add them to salads or pasta dishes.
