Harissa-Braised Green Beans with Herbs

A stewed green bean can be just as good as a crisp, barely cooked one.

Mustardy Green Beans with Anchovyed Walnuts

The key is to have just-cooked green beans, lightly dressed and topped in a tangy, mustardy dressing, with toasted, garlicky, anchovyed walnuts.

Blistered Green Beans with Creamy Tahini and Fresh Hot Sauce

New Shrimp Louie (Poached Shrimp Salad)

In this spirit of classics like shrimp Louie or niçoise salad, this is a fairly basic, highly customizable salad-for-dinner deal that can mostly be cooked in the same pot of boiling water.
