Miniature popovers make for excellent finger food. The mild flavours of the crab and green onion are just piqued by the jalapeño pepper.
The rich, smoky taste of chipotle peppers joins the fresh lively taste of salsa. The salsa's tomatillos, sometimes called Spanish or Mexican green tomatoes, have a delicate, lightly acidic flavour. Canned ones are available in most supermarkets. This salsa is also good with tortilla chips.
Mild version: Reduce chipotle peppers to 1. Reduce adobo sauce to 1 tbsp (15 mL). Add 2 tbsp (25 mL) ketchup. Replace jalapeño pepper in Green Salsa with dash of green or other mild hot pepper sauce.
The sweetness of honey perfectly balances the sharpness of the greens. Frisee is a nice addition, if available.
Sautéed green beans and peas are a classic. They're simple to make and have just enough butter and lemon to let their fresh flavours pop.
Bright-green tender-crisp beans are the perfect companion to classic roast chicken. Salty feta cheese and a touch of lemon take this dish over the top.
A light dressing coats the greens and accents the raspberries and pine nuts.
This creamy, herby dressing coats tender greens perfectly. For less fat, use light mayonnaise and sour cream.
A salade composée— arranged rather than tossed — is an attractive way to serve beans. The hard-cooked eggs, tomatoes and black olives that surround the dressed green beans are perfect flavour and colour complements.
Perfect for any party or summer barbecue, these green beans make fantastic garnishes for cocktails (think Caesars!). You can also add them to any sandwich, burger, cheese platter or charcuterie tray. Or just enjoy them straight out of the jar.
