Blanchin' Beans

This is my latest food project. These beans are from Clover Gardens near Athens. They are sooooo good fresh but I wanted to freeze some to have later. So, like with the corn, I boiled them quickly (about 1 minute) and then plunged them into ice cold water to stop the cooking process. After I drained them, I put them in ziploc freezer bags. Last year, I found they were great in soups and casseroles during the winter.
