Holiday Recipes: Southern Green Bean Casserole Recipe

[@suer8343]

Hey Paula! If you add bacon grease to your canned green beans it gets rid of the metal taste. I pour water and beans in pot , add 1 Tbsp of bacon grease per can and cook for 12 to 15 minutes in a rolling boil. If you like you can drain the beans. They will keep the bacon flavor. Happy cooking. Love your show.

[@vickiepeek2279]

rinsing canned beans gets rid of salt too - unless buy no salt canned green beans

[@susiq4552]

I cook green beans the same way but I add one pack of Goya Ham flavored concentrate instead of bacon grease. Let the water or broth cook down so you can barely see any in the bottom of the pan. Of course, stir in the Goya seasoning.

Paula Just wanted to tell you how much I love watching you just being YOU. And to thank you for showing us these classic thanksgiving dishes. Love ya much Jennifer

You have the racks backwards in the GE oven. The curve up should be at the back of the oven. It prevents you from pulling the rack all the way out on accident. Hold the rack upward while putting the rack in with the curved part going in. It will make sense when you do it. Great Video!! Will make this Casserole! Thanks!

[@Chemeleon15]

The curve also catches pans and stops food from falling off the back side if you pull the grate too hard/fast

[@mathiaslee83]

@@Chemeleon15 lol mine is missing the curve and I learned that the hard way with a pizza XD

[@Trish.Norman]

@@Chemeleon15 Been there done that. Curve in the back. ;-) Theoretically, curve in front might be correct. However GE ovens do not have smooth gliding heavy racks. Trying to pull a heavy pan out of the oven on these racks don’t work. Lots a dragging in the rails.

[@rosesbaker]

It also stops your dish from sliding off the back of the rack when you pull it out!!!!!

[@ilovegoodsax]

It's not electric. It's an induction cooktop.

[@stacey5925]

It is electric, as I have the same cooktop. Induction is a type of "magnetic" heat, thus the name, induction, and requires special cookware bottom surfaces to create the magnet force, or induction to create the bonding surface. Miss Paula, is just not used to electric, after cooking on gas stovetop for all those years. Looks like she is getting the hang of it now.

@@stacey5925 Paula said in the first video here in Bobby's guest house that it was an induction cooktop and she was having a hard time getting use to it.

I've been making it the same way every year for over 30 years. I use Campbell's Cream of Onion (most people use Cream of Mushroom), one cup of chicken stock (instead of water), garlic powder, onion powder, pepper and French's Fried Onions mixed in and placed on top. Simple, but the best.

[@frugalfoodfamily]

This is an elevated version 😂. I have to tell you how we made it in south AL. Drain two cans of green beans...plop at bottom of casserole dish. Plop out a can of cream of mushroom soup... mix together with s&p and a little milk. Sprinkle on top with fried onions. Bake at 350 until bubbly. I like your recipe SO much better. Can't wait to try it this year. I will put the crunch on top

[@geezermann7865]

Lol, I like your method, it's what most of us grew up with. Now I use one can of French cut and one can regular cut, and cream of celery soup, a little shredded cheese instead of milk, and I stir in some of the fried onions, and put the rest on top. This year I found the best ones - Golden Farms Crispy Onions - on eBay.

Good morning, Paula, Eddie n Theresa! Just wondering, it sounds like your oven racks are in backwards. The curve part of rack should be in the back. The curve "stops" the racks from coming all the way out when you pull them to retrieve your dish. The curve "catches" on the sides of the oven. G.B. casserole looks so tasty. I never liked it with fresh beans either. Something about the can bean!🦃🦃🐾💕😁

My goodness it’s delicious! 🤤🤤

[@CatsPajamas23]

True about casseroles! At my first TG down here there was a broccoli casserole, a superb sweet potato casserole, a potato casserole(scalloped), (in addition to the mashed potatoes), a carrot casserole, and as close as one could get to a cranberry casserole with out actually putting mayo or sour cream into it and baking it ( a cranberry salad actually, so good!), a corn casserole, and of course the green bean casserole. It's true, Yankees love this. My parents never served this, but there's been one at every Thanksgiving dinner I've been to or hosted since I was 21! Thanks for sharing!

[@zoeemiko8149]

I never ate canned green beans as a kid or really any canned veggies. Mama always had a big garden to keep her 10 kids fed. As an adult I gag on the tin taste in canned veggies to this day. I've rinsed, tried cooking in stock, everything to try to cover up that metal taste to no avail. So I make mine using fresh green beans, onions, mushrooms & sliced celery. Mama also made her own mushroom soup and thickened it to add to the casserole by stirring it into a rue. Her green bean casserole was one of the 1st dishes to disappear at church events and holiday gatherings. She made it the same way my grandma made hers with a crunchy Ritz cracker & walnut topping. I think what decides "good" is what you grew up on.

[@MTknitter22]

frozen good quality green beans or fresh only

[@BROUBoomer]

Hi Zoe Emiko, Didn't y'all can any of your garden vegetables? Mason jar canning will give you the softer green beans to cook this with. Or use frozen. My family canned and froze from the backyard garden, and my grandparents farm. I didn't eat store bought veggies until after their divorce, but I got used to it. Take care, stay safe, have a nice day. 👵☺️✌️☮️🖖 😷 🙉🙈🙊

Looks yummy....!! Thank you Miss Paula...!! One of my favorite casseroles is a vegetable casserole. 2 cans of vegall 1/2 cup mayonnaise 1 cup chopped celery and 1 cup chopped onion ( sauteed ) . 1 cup shredded cheese Cook vegall for about 30 minutes in a saucepan. Then drain vegetables. Pour in a bowl. Add cheese to mayonnaise and mix that in with the vegetables. Then add the celery and onions to the rest of your vegetables, cheese, and mayonnaise. Mix all together real well. Butter a glass casserole dish . Pour mixture into the buttered dish . Then melt butter in microwave. Mix the melted butter with about 2 sleeves of Ritz crackers . Put on top of casserole. Preheat oven 350° . Cook for about 45 minutes. Tip....you might want to cover your casserole with aluminum foil for about 15 minutes. That way you don't burn your topping. Then remove the aluminum foil and continue to cook for 30 more minutes. 😊❤

Hi Bonnie Brown, This sounds so good! Thank you. I use canned veg-all, or a can of mixed vegetables, with a box of Stovetop stuffing, and canned or leftover chicken, 3 Tblspn butter cut up, microwave for 5 minutes in a CorningWare casserole dish. My late husband is the one that cooks with mayonnaise. He would have loved your recipe. I'm looking forward to trying this, thank you. Take care, stay safe, have a nice day. 👵☺️✌️☮️🖖 😷 🙉🙈🙊

Please tell us again about your kitchen now. I forgot. I’m making this for my husband and mine Thanksgiving. I hate this virus!

"Gimme that camera!" Cracked me up! Hahahaha😂🤣 I love green beans with the onions on top too. So if I make it this year I'm gonna put cheese and onions on top. In Puerto Rico we eat for thanksgiving: Green Pigeon peas rice with a smoked ham or sausage inside, roasted turkey or pork, and potato salad or macaroni salad with an avocado on the side. I make a good green pigeon pea rice. I wanna share the recipe with you.

I love you Paula Dean and very one of your recipes that I have tried. One year, after making this for my husband, he volunteered me to make this recipe for his grandmother's thanksgiving lunch, now she tells me very year (over 13+ years) to bring this recipe. For Thanksgiving, I do use fresh green beans cooked in chicken stock but any other time it's canned. I also put just a little fried onions and cheddar cheese INTO the casserole and the rest on top.

[@michellesmith7060]

That's funny!!!! Poor Eddie turned red instantly 😉😉😉😉 Don't worry Eddie you looked great 🥰🥰🥰🙏🙏🙏👍👍 You all have a special relationship with each other. I really can tell you love working with each other. 🙏🙏🙏🍾🍾🍾

Paula Deen is the “Queen” when it comes to southern cuisine!🤗

[@nette49]

I would put all the beans! And I add 1/4 cup of sour cream. I do what you do....... drain then rinse my beans. And like you suggested, I top with mashed soda crackers mixed with melted butter. So good!

[@BROUBoomer]

Hi Ms Paula, Thank you for the video, great one as usual. I put the French fried onions inside as well as on top. But I put the ones on top at the end, the last few minutes of cooking. I also put in a can full of milk, and a dollup to a half cup of sour cream into the cream of mushroom soup. As well as 2 tablespoons of Worcestershire sauce, a splash of soy sauce, a few dashes of garlic powder, a couple dashes of onion powder, and a couple dashes of pepper, dash of salt. An extra jar of mushrooms. I also use at least 3 different cans of green beans, like: wax beans, kitchen cut, and French cut; sometimes Italian cut, very green, or long cut. Depends on how many people I'm cooking for. Bake at 350°F for 30 to 45 minutes, until liquid is reduced and thickened. I always bring home an empty dish when I bring it to potlucks. I've never seen it with cheese on it; but that looks so good. Take care, stay safe, have a nice day. 👵☺️✌️☮️🖖 😷 🙉🙈🙊

What is “strickaline”?

[@ilovegoodsax]

Streak of lean = a piece of pork fat.

[@imthebossofme63]

@@ilovegoodsax hum, that's the first time I have heard it that way. Makes perfect sense now. Thank you!

@@imthebossofme63 mmMe too. She used the word in an early video and after someone clarified what she said, I looked it up. 😁

I'm basing my Thanksgiving dinner on these recipes! LOVE< LOVE< LOVEEEE! *Hi EDDIE!

[@scruffy281]

I totally agree with you on the "canned" green beans. I have tried it with fresh green beans twice in 30 years and it just doesn't get to green bean nirvana. It just isn't what I need on our Thanksgiving table. I love FRESH EVERYTHING to be honest but in this dish.........it just doesn't work. Thanks so much Ms. Deen for all your wonderful encouragement and for that beautiful Southern smile. It's infectious!!❤️ Happy Thanksgiving to you and your sweet family and God Bless you all!❤️

[@curious1neueckeka692]

I use the recipe on the back of Frenchs fried onion box, and using cream of mushroom with cremini and shittake soup adds more flavor.

[@normastewart3868]

In Texas, we cook them like you, but use the canned Seasoned Green Beans and add diced water chestnuts to the mixture. Adds a lot of crunch.

[@mariaolker]

I always have to have canned green beans for my casserole.

[@randysuggs8967]

I have had some bad green bean casseroles also. This is tried and true for real.

[@kathyhartje9510]

Hi gmorning can u use frozen green beans??? I miss cooking on gas!

[@christyinthecarolinas]

Absolutely and they're amazing!

[@vickiefisher6587]

Made it. Love it. Eddie is AWESOME! Theresa too~ Thanks all & pray your Thanksgiving was great. Tough here we had a monumental Loss but time goes on & we rally for the Day of Thanks. Thankful for YOU!

[@GlitterRhi]

The BEST!! I make this recipe every Thanksgiving and it's always a hit!!... P.S. Paula you may need to rotate the oven rack so the raised up part is in the back! Careful but it sounds like they might be in backwards 🤯🤭💕

[@tammyburrell1093]

I am scared of gravy!! It is the anxiety of my whole Thanksgiving dinner. I love to watch you cook, it's like being home with mom and I lost her when I was 13. Please do your giblet gravy!

[@michaelcaputo7215]

This is the only green bean casserole I use, I do use fresh green beans. Paula is the best

[@NightCalls001]

I’ve never had it with the cheese, looks good though. And I top it with some of the dried onion rings.....just like the original recipe. But that sure looks good Paula.

[@Honeycomblife]

Thanks for the recipes they may be simple to you but for me its helpful info thank ya!

[@lisacooke8363]

You make everything so easy to follow, and soooooo delicious! Love eating at Paula Deans in TN and love you sweetheart! God bless you Mrs. Paula xxx

[@carmenvillafane9924]
