Green bean casserole
Green Bean Casserole is a popular casserole dish in the United States, particularly around holidays such as Thanksgiving and Christmas. It typically consists of green beans, cream of mushroom soup, and French fried onions.
History
The recipe was created in 1955 by Dorcas Reilly, a home economist working in the test kitchens of Campbell Soup Company. The goal was to create a quick and easy recipe using ingredients that most American households always had on hand. The recipe was printed on the labels of Campbell's cream of mushroom soup cans, which helped it gain widespread popularity.
Ingredients and Preparation
The traditional recipe for green bean casserole requires canned or fresh green beans, a can of cream of mushroom soup, milk, soy sauce, black pepper, and French fried onions. Some variations may include cheese, ground black pepper, or other vegetables.
The green beans and cream of mushroom soup are mixed together with milk, soy sauce, and a small amount of the French fried onions, then baked. The remaining onions are added to the top of the casserole and the dish is baked for a few more minutes until the onions are golden brown.
Variations
There are many variations of the green bean casserole recipe. Some people prefer to use fresh green beans or homemade cream of mushroom soup. Others add cheese, bacon, or other ingredients. There are also vegan and gluten-free versions of the recipe.
Cultural Significance
Green bean casserole is a staple of many American holiday meals. It is particularly associated with Thanksgiving, when it is often served alongside turkey and other traditional dishes. The dish's simplicity and the fact that it can be made ahead of time make it a popular choice for these large meals.
