Steps for garden green beans

  1. Prepare the beans: cook the stemmed beans in plenty of salted water for 5 min to keep them al dente. Cool in iced water.
  2. Prepare the cherries: hull and pit the cherries. Cut into 3-4 mm-thick pieces. Keep 100 g for the marmalade.
  3. Vinegar marmalade: brown the cherries in a hot frying pan, deglaze with vinegar, cook for around 10 min, then blend coarsely while hot. Add a pinch of Espelette pepper. Set aside in the fridge.
  4. Creamy givernois: in a bowl, whisk the two givernois (or fresh goats' cheeses) with the raw cream, salt, lemon juice and zest. Set aside.
  5. Dill condiment: in a blender, combine coarsely chopped dill, horseradish cream, vinegar, salt, Espelette pepper and an ice cube to fix the chlorophyll. Start blending, then blend with the olive oil until smooth. Add the fromage blanc to the mixture. Set aside in the fridge.
  6. Gomasio: roast the hazelnuts and sesame seeds in a 210°C oven for 10 min. In a mortar and pestle, crush the hazelnuts and sesame, add the pink berries, fleur de sel and a dash of olive oil.
  7. Finishing: toss the beans with some of the dill condiment. Place the creamy givernois at the bottom of the plate. Arrange the beans on top and garnish with fresh cherries. Add the vinegar marmalade and gomasio, finish with the remaining dill condiment and nasturtium flowers.
