• Choose green beans of even light green color, without brown and yellow spots, elastic, not sluggish.
• To determine its freshness, break the pod. If it breaks into two separate halves with a crisp crunch - this is a fresh vegetable. If it is difficult to break it, and the parts remain interconnected by fibers, it means that the beans have been torn for a long time or overripe.
• Asparagus (chilli) beans can be added to soups and borschs, make stews, omelets, casseroles with it. It can be canned and frozen.
• Before freezing, the beans are well washed, cleaned from stems and veins, cut into pieces 2.5-4 cm and blanched in boiling water for 4-6 minutes.
