Number Of Ingredients 7

2 tablespoons white sesame seeds
2 tea bags (green or white tea)
4 cups green beans, trimmed
1/4 cup golden raisins
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1/4 cup shaved Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Spread the sesame seeds on a baking sheet in a single layer. Bake for 5 to 6 minutes, or until the sesame seeds are crisp and fragrant.
  • In a large steamer pot, bring 4 cups water to a boil. Add tea bags. Place green beans in the steam rack. Be sure the water doesn't rise onto the rack. Steam at medium-high heat, covered, until beans are bright green, about 4 minutes. Sprinkle raisins into the steam basket and steam for one more minute.
  • In a large salad bowl, toss green beans and raisins with vinegar, sesame oil, and sesame seeds. Garnish with Parmesan cheese. Serve immediately.

I'm not a big fan of raisins, so I used dried cranberries instead. It was still very good.

I've never been a big fan of green beans, but this recipe changed my mind. The raisins added a sweetness that balanced out the bitterness of the beans.
