GERMAN GREEN BEAN SOUP (GRüNE BOHNENSUPPE)

Steps:

• Wash the beans, cut off the ends, and then cut them into halves or thirds depending on the size of them.
• Peel the potatoes, carrots, and celery root. Cut everything into small cubes.
• Peel the onion and finely chop it.
• Wash the leek really well (it can be quite dirty) and cut it into rings.
• Heat one teaspoon of oil in a large pot. Add the pancetta bacon and fry it for a few minutes until the fatty pieces appear cooked. Then add the onions and sauté them until the onions are translucent and the pancetta bacon is slightly brown.
• Add the vegetables (potatoes, carrots, celery root, green beans, and leek) and sauté them for around 2 minutes as well.
• Now add enough vegetable broth so that it just covers the contents of the pot. In our case, this is usually around 8 cups of vegetable broth - but it might be more or less in your case depending on the size of your pot and your vegetables.
• Add the chopped parsley and savory. Give everything a stir.
• Add the lid to the pot and bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Then turn down the heat and let the soup simmer for around 20-25 minutes until the vegetables are soft.
• Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve and enjoy!

GREG'S GROOVY GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Make the sriracha mayo: In a small bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, sriracha and 2 teaspoons of the lemon juice until well combined. Set aside.
• Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over medium-high heat.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the bacon and cook, flipping as needed, until crisp, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove to a paper towel-lined plate to drain and set aside. Pour out all but 2 tablespoons of the bacon fat.
• Return the skillet with the bacon fat to medium heat and add the peppers, garlic and onion. Cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are softened and slightly fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the almonds and continue to cook until the almonds begin to brown, an additional 2 minutes. Set aside on a plate.
• When the pot of salted water is at a soft boil, drop in the green beans and gently blanch until bright green but still slightly undercooked, 3 to 4 minutes. They will finish cooking in the skillet later.
• Return the skillet to medium heat and add the butter. With a slotted spoon, transfer the greens beans directly from the boiling water to the hot skillet. Toss and cook for an additional minute. Just before removing them from the skillet, add the remaining lemon juice. Taste and adjust the seasoning as needed.
• Transfer the green beans to a platter. Drizzle with the sriracha mayo, mound the sauteed veggies in the center and crumble the crispy bacon all around.
