About Green snap beans
Green snap beans are the immature, tender pods of common beans, harvested before the seeds become fully mature. The long, narrow pods are green and usually eaten whole, including their small developing seeds. They are crisp when raw and become tender when cooked, with a mild, grassy bean flavour.
They are commonly steamed, boiled, sautéed, roasted, or added to mixed dishes. Fresh pods, frozen beans, and canned beans are distinct forms; canned products may also include salt or other ingredients. Preparation and preservation change moisture and texture, so comparisons should specify whether the beans are raw, cooked, frozen, or canned.
