The most gorgeous and enjoyable way to eat summer beans

Overview

Summer is the season when beans are abundant. On the bean racks, the flowers are always blooming one after another, and the fruits are always hanging lively. What I like best is the vines of carob beans, which are pulling and entwining with each other, like two close friends who will never be separated. I often help them break them down mischievously and arrange them according to my own requirements, but the next day, they will be tangled together again, go back to the original path, and continue to climb... Maybe it is this perseverance and unyielding spirit that makes me like them. The most common way to eat beans in our hometown is to stew or stir-fry them. My father once went to Shunde and ate a kind of stuffed beans. He said that this is probably the most gorgeous and enjoyable way to eat beans. Fresh beans are made to order and twisted into small twist-like flower baskets with fresh fish fillings inside. Each bite is beautiful and delicious. My mother improved it, mixing minced pork and fresh shrimp to make a meat filling, stuffing it into braided green florets, frying it in a pot until it is fragrant, and it tastes even more delicious. My mother said that this Stuffed Beans seems simple, but in order to make perfect Stuffed Beans, you must master three points: First, when blanching the beans, you must add salt to the boiling water, so that the beans will have a bright green color; second, the beans must be knotted and braided into a floret shape, so that they will not separate easily when fried; third, the meat filling must be stirred vigorously, so that it will taste fresh and delicious.
