Serves 4-6

Ingredients:

1-pound fresh green beans

3 green onions

1 tbsp minced fresh ginger

1 tbsp apricot preserves

2 tsp sriracha

1 can cannellini beans (drained and rinsed)

5 sage leaves chopped

1/2 cup water

1 or 2 tsp salt

Directions:

Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. While the water is coming to a boil slice the green onions on a bias. 

In a pan heat butter, ginger and sage together, cook until the ginger starts to brown, 

then add the sriracha, apricot preserves, and water. Cook until the liquid thickens (this will happen quickly) remove from heat and add the drained cannelloni beans. Buy this point the water should be at a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 6 to 7 min until cooked and still green. While the beans are cooking prepare an ice bath, once the beans are cooked remove from pot to the ice bath to shock. Bring the saucy liquid to a simmer and add the beans and adjust seasoning with a pinch or two of salt serve immediately.
