Thank you, Anne for another wonderful recipe and for KIR....keeping it real.
You are such an inspiration to me. I love to cook, I love to watch you cook and learn from you. You are so down to earth, so real and your love for cooking and sharing your talents with others really shines!

This recipe is the Bomb Dot Com. My daughter and I are green bean addicts and love, love, love our green beans with mushrooms and bacon. By the way, she is 10. She has GREAT taste. Wonderful, wonderful recipe.

Thanks. Anne. You keep on rocking it out, you Culinary Goddess, you.......

Thanks Anne. I have been craving this dish from childhood for a long, long, long time now..and everywhich way I tried to make it failed. Now I have it..and it brings me back to the past. Wonderful. Another thing I like about this recipe is that if you have beans that were left on the vine too long and sure to be tough with a quick steam or saute..this is the way to go!! Love it!!

Loved this recipe for Green Beans! Brought back memories of growing up in the South. The incorporation of stock was an improvement to my original recipe using bouillon and bacon instead of ham hock (which I can never find!. Anne, you're a great teacher and I love your show. *It amazes me that people writing in on the FN site re: use of salt still do not understand the concept of seasoning as you go and salt TO TASTE.

I just watched here make this earlier to-day... Anne does add a lot of salt to her food as do most Chefs I know it brings out the flavor so they say. I will never add salt until the last minute because as the previous post said "bacon has so much salt in it already"

I live in Vegas and know a lot of chefs and I have started asking for our food to be prepared with no salt not even on french fries and it does make a difference.

I am going to make this as a side for diner to-morrow because I love Anne shes funny and makes cooking fun, and everything of her's that I have tried comes out beautifully I just watch the salt :

She started this recipe with a slab of bacon then added mushrooms and what appeared to be a tablespoon or more of salt. Then she added beans and another big dip of salt. Then braised the "crap" out of the beans (her word not mine and seasoned yes, with more SALT... I always thought bacon was pretty salty to start with??? Anne, do you ever taste what you cook? How can she judge other people's cooking - well - both shows just lost tons of credibility with me...
