Discard the oregano sprig, then add the oregano leaves to the pot and toss. Top with flaky salt and more red pepper flakes.

GREEN BEANS WITH BROWNED BUTTER

Steps:

• In 2-quart saucepan, place beans in 1 inch of water. Heat to boiling. Boil uncovered 6 to 8 minutes or until crisp-tender (they shouldn't be "squeaky" when you bite into one); drain. Keep warm.
• Meanwhile, in 1-quart saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Be careful not to let butter burn or it will taste bitter. Stir in pecans. Heat, stirring constantly, until butter is golden brown. (If bottom of saucepan is dark, it may be difficult to see the difference between brown butter and burnt butter. Try spooning a little of the butter onto a white plate to see the color more clearly.) Immediately remove from heat. Pour butter mixture over beans; toss to coat. Sprinkle with lemon peel.

GREEN BEANS WITH BROWNED BUTTER AND HAZELNUTS

Steps:

• Heat a saute pan over medium-low heat. Add the hazelnuts and toast the hazelnuts until the skins are dark brown but not burned. Keep the heat low so that you don't burn the hazelnuts. It should take about 6-7 minutes. Let cool enough to handle and rub the skins off. You can use a towel or a garlic peeler. Coarsely chop and set aside.
• Add 1 cup water to the saute pan and bring to a boil over medium heat. Add the green beans and cover with lid. Steam the beans for 3-4 minutes, until just tender. Immediately drain and rinse with cool water to stop the cooking.
• Wipe the saute pan dry and return to the stove on medium-high heat. Add the butter and let the butter brown and bubble. Once the butter is browned, add the shallots and saute for 1 minute. Pour in the balsamic vinegar and the green beans. Use your spatula or large spoon to scoop up some of the browned balsamic butter up and over the green beans. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Stir in the chopped hazelnuts.

• Cut off the top of the garlic head and discard. Put the garlic on a square of aluminum foil and drizzle with the olive oil. Wrap the foil around the garlic, put in the oven and roast for 50 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to cool to room temperature. Once cooled, remove the garlic from the foil and squeeze the garlic head, cut side down, over a small bowl until all of the roasted garlic cloves pop out. Mash the pulp with a fork and set aside.
• In a large skillet over medium-high heat melt the butter and cook until it begins to foam, turn light brown and acquire a nutty aroma. Turn the heat to low, add the shallots, and cook for 2 minutes. Add the green beans, roasted garlic, and almonds, and season with salt and pepper, to taste. Transfer the beans to a serving bowl and serve immediately.

THE BEST GREEN BEANS EVER

Steps:

• Snap the stem ends of the green beans, or cut them off in a big bunch with a knife if you'd prefer.
• Melt the bacon grease in a skillet over medium-low heat. Add the garlic and onions and cook for a minute. Then add the green beans and cook until the beans turn bright green, about a minute. Add the chicken broth, chopped red pepper, salt and pepper to taste. Turn the heat to low and cover the skillet with a lid, leaving the lid cracked to allow steam to escape. Cook until the liquid evaporates and the beans are fairly soft, yet still a bit crisp, 20 to 30 minutes. You can add more chicken broth during the cooking process, but don't be afraid to let it all cook away so the onions and peppers can start to caramelize.
