Answers:
"Haricot vert" is literally French for "green bean!." The French beans are longer and skinnier than U!.S!. varieties, and have a better texture and more flavor!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Haricot vert is French for green beans!. Haricot meaning beans and vert meaning green!. French green beans are longer and thinner than most American varieties!. They are also more tender and have a more complex flavor!.

For the most part, they are interchangeable with American green beans, string beans or snap beans!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

The beans are actually French in origin!. They are not cut small, they are grown that way!. If you are fortunate enough to have a Trader Joe's anywhere near you, check out their freezer section!. They have a LARGE bag of the haricort vert at a very reasonable price!. I usually steam them with a little tarragon, and add butter before serving!. Love these!!!Www@FoodAQ@Com
