| 6 | Runner beans are only good if you use them while they are young. Don't forget to take off the stringy edges by running a knife down each side about a cm in and then discarding it. Steam to cook. The bigger runner beans are very tough when cooked hence the need to use them when they are young. nanee2jlp - 2020-01-29 10:46:00 |
| 7 | Use a bean slicer (as per link) to cut them into 'strings' and cook (or freeze) them. Makes them more palatable than in large chunks. harm_less - 2020-01-29 13:08:00 |
| 8 | Steam young runner beans until just tender but with a bit of crunch (test one) and serve with a knob of butter and salt and pepper to taste. viking60 - 2020-01-29 14:53:00 |
| 9 | Depends which type. I grow Shiny Fandelosa. Tender, stringless. lythande1 - 2020-01-29 15:02:00 |

| 14 | I love runner beans but only the flat one's, dislike the Chinese round ones, but cannot afford them at $27 a kilo. pollypanner - 2020-01-31 12:51:00 |
