     Title: N.Y.T. Green Bean Casserole
Categories: Beans, Vegetables, Dairy
     Yield: 8 Servings

     2 c  Chicken broth
     2 lb Frozen cut green beans;
          - thawed
     1 ts Celery salt
          Salt & fresh ground pepper
     2 tb Unsalted butter
     2 tb A-P flour
     2 c  Heavy cream
   1/4 ts Ground nutmeg
     6 oz Can store-bought crispy
          - onions

 Set the oven @ 350 F/175 C.

 To a medium lidded saucepan, add the chicken broth, 1 lb green
 beans, and 1/2 ts celery salt. Season with salt and pepper. Cover
 and bring to a boil over high. Lower the heat to medium-low and
 simmer, still covered and stirring occasionally, until the beans
 are very tender, about 20 minutes.

 About 10 minutes before the beans are done cooking, melt the butter
 in a large, oven-safe skillet over medium-high. Add the flour and
 whisk until smooth and beginning to turn golden, 1 to 2 minutes.

 Slowly add the heavy cream to the flour mixture, whisking
 constantly, followed by 1 cup of the green bean broth. Bring to a
 simmer, then reduce the heat to medium-low and cook, whisking
 occasionally, until thick enough to coat the back of a spoon, 5 to
 7 minutes. Stir in the nutmeg and remaining 1/2 ts celery salt, and
 season assertively with salt and pepper. (The sauce should taste
 overly seasoned at this stage.)

 Drain the green beans and add to the sauce. Add the remaining
 thawed frozen green beans, season to taste again with salt and
 pepper, if needed, and stir to combine.

 Transfer the creamy beans to a 2 qt casserole dish or keep in the
 skillet. Top with the crispy onions. Bake until golden brown on
 top, about 10 minutes. Let sit to cool and set before serving, at
 least 5 minutes.
