This recipe is from Susan Mundt of the "S-Cargot" Deli in Elberta, MI on Lake Michigan's shores up north! I asked why she loves cooking enough to serve it up for the discerning palate for a few hours a day. She replied, "I like the adventure in the kitchen. This is something I can share. The enjoyment of others keeps me going!" I scribbled down her Haricot Vert recipe as she told it to me after I bought her incredible spinach sausage and tasty peanut butter truffles. This is the old-fashioned way of passing along a good recipe.
