Green bean casserole rookie here

Anonymous
Rookie to making it, not to eating it! Anyway, my family tends to veer non-traditional at Thanksgiving, so I can't remember the last time green bean casserole was on the menu. I happen to be the weirdo who really likes it, so I'm going to try my hand at it this year. I am uncertain if I should go with the back-of-the-soup can recipe or a more from scratch version. I'm torn because I feel like it is not meant to be gourmet, so going too high brow might actually take away from it.

Anyone got a tried and true classic GBC recipe to share?

Make your own mushroom soup, it upgrades the recipe

I vote for doing the Campbell's version.

I grew up in the midwest and hated green bean casserole. Disgusting soup smothered over canned green beans. YUCK.

But my wife wants it, so I found this recipe and make it and it is delicious. https://www.williams-sonoma.com/recipe/the-ultimate-green-bean-casserole-with-crispy-fried-shallots.html

If you like the way you've had it in the past, use the can recipe. It's probably what has been served in Thanksgivings past.

The recipe is simple:

1) cook GBC

2) throw your vomit casserole in the trash

Done

Might be too late for you but I made the recipe for GBC that is printed on the can of fried onions being sold at TJ right now. Delicious.

What an inelegant, crass person.

We use Alton down’s recipe except we use the prepackaged fried onions to go on top. Not difficult to make at all and it tastes great. I find the soup can version to taste heavy and processed.
