Organic Green Long Beans (1 lb)

Green long beans — also called yard-long beans or Chinese long beans — stretch up to a foot and a half in length with a snappy, slightly chewy texture and an earthy, grassy flavor more complex than a standard green bean. They hold up beautifully under high heat, making them ideal for the wok — toss them with garlic, ginger, and soy and they'll blister and char at the edges while staying satisfyingly toothy inside. Equally good braised until silky, dressed with sesame oil and chili crisp, or dry-fried Sichuan-style with ground pork and preserved vegetables. A Southeast and East Asian staple that deserves a permanent spot in your weeknight rotation.
