"I love Hoisin sauce which my DH refers to as poison, and that is not because he hates it, its just because when the kids were young, they had difficulty pronouncing the H and ST sounds. So we often had snake (steak) with poison (hoisin) sauce. Back to the beans. I have had a bumper crop of bush beans this year and have been coming up with different ways to enjoy them."
