INSTRUCTIONS
Zydeco Green Beans is actually a redundancy. The exuberant music of
Louisiana's black French-speaking Creoles is called zydeco, an idiomatic
phonetic version of les haricots, French for snap beans. Serve these green
beans as a relish, or as "stirrers" for Bloody Marys.
~------------------------------------------------------ ~-----------------
In a large saucepan, stir together the water, vinegar, sugar, mustard
seeds, garlic, bay leaves, salt and Tabasco sauce. Bring to a boil, reduce
the heat, cover, and simmer for 5 minutes. Add the beans. Cover and simmer
for 10 minutes, until tender-crisp. Arrange the beans in a shallow dish and
cover them completely with the vinegar mixture. Cover and refrigerate
overnight. Serve cold.
