How Long Does It Take To Cook Green Beans?
Green beans typically take around 8-10 minutes to cook. To prepare, first wash and trim the ends of the beans. Then, bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook until tender but still slightly crisp, around 8-10 minutes. Drain the beans and serve as desired. Alternatively, you can also blanch the green beans by cooking them in boiling water for 3-5 minutes and then quickly transferring them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
