String Beans With Egg Sauce Recipe

(Fagiuolini in salsa d'uovo)



Take less than a pound of string beans, cutting off the two points and

removing all the strings, and then cook them partially in water

moderately salted. Take them from the kettle, drain, and brown with

butter, salt and pepper. Beat one yolk with a teaspoonful of flour and

the juice of half a small lemon, dilute with half a cup of cold broth

from which the fat has been removed and put this liquid on the fire in a

small saucepan stirring continually. When the liquid has become, through

the cooking, like a cream, pour it on the string beans that you will

keep on the fire a little longer, with the sauce. The string beans so

prepared can be served with boiled beef.
