into boiling water sufficient to cover, and cook until tender. Let the water boil nearly away, and serve without draining. Season with thin cream or Nut Cream, and salt if desired.

Break off stems and points, carefully rejecting any imperfect or diseased pods. Lay a handful evenly on a board, and cut them all at once into inch lengths. A better way, perhaps, is to break each separately with the fingers. Only tender beans can be thus broken, and any portions of the string remaining will be discovered in the breaking.
