When making beans almondine, it is important to use high quality ingredients. Start by blanching the almonds and slicing them into thin strips. When preparing the beans, make sure to rinse them thoroughly and cook in salted water until just tender. Once the beans are cooked, season them with olive oil, vinegar, and salt. Finally, add the almonds, butter, and parsley. When assembled, make sure to cook on low heat to ensure the almonds don't burn and the beans absorb the flavors. Lastly, enjoy the deliciousness!
