About Fresh string green beans

Fresh string green beans, often referred to as snap beans or haricots verts, are vibrant, nutrient-packed vegetables originating from Central and South America. Widely used in cuisines globally, they are a staple in dishes such as stir-fries, salads, and casseroles, adding crunch and natural sweetness. Green beans are an excellent source of vitamins A, C, and K, folate, and dietary fiber, promoting healthy digestion, bone strength, and immune support. They are low in calories, fat-free, and contain plant-based antioxidants, making them a heart-healthy choice. With minimal traces of carbohydrates and sugar, they are suitable for various diets, including low-carb and diabetic-friendly plans. When cooked fresh, their crisp texture shines, though overcooking can reduce nutrient content. Whether steamed, sautéed, or roasted, fresh green beans deliver health benefits with a touch of earthy flavor.
