Haricots verts, also known as French green beans, are a slender, tender variety of green beans widely used in French cuisine. Unlike regular green beans, haricots verts are slightly longer and thinner, with a crisp texture when cooked. They are rich in essential nutrients, including vitamin C, vitamin K, folate, and dietary fiber, which support immune function, strong bones, and digestive health. These beans are low in calories and fat, making them an excellent choice for balanced diets. Haricots verts are also a good source of antioxidants like beta-carotene and lutein, which promote eye and skin health. Typically enjoyed steamed, sautéed, or blanched, they pair well with garlic, shallots, lemon, and fresh herbs, emphasizing their mild, earthy flavor. While their preparation methods are generally healthy, recipes incorporating heavy creams or excessive butter may increase calorie and fat content.
