Step 1
If using a smaller pot, you may have to blanch the green beans in batches. Set out a large bowl of ice water before blanching the beans.
Step 2
In a large saucepan or stock pot, bring 4 quarts water and 1 tablespoon salt to boil.
Step 3
Add the green beans and boil until tender-crisp, but still bright green, about 3 to 5 minutes. Drain well and immediately plunge into ice water to stop the cooking.
