The sweetness of apple, the sharpness of shallot, and the supreme salty beauty of bacon… how can anything compare? Especially when it tops a succulent pork chop; every bite is a complex dance of flavor, almost mystical in its sublime-ness. Have we gotten too artsy? Forget all that… this is darn good eats. Tip: Line 'em up! The best way to remove the ends of green beans is to line them up evenly, then remove them with one cut.
