Produce OASIS Tip of the Day

Each day Produce Oasis has a new Tip of the Day featuring your favorite fruits, vegetables, nuts, herbs and spices.

May 14 - Green Bean Selection Tips:

Look for blemish-free, clean beans that are tender, crisp and well-shaped. The most tender beans will be thin but can be either long or short. Pick beans with smooth skin.

Avoid beans that are tough and discolored - this is a sign that they are not fresh. Also avoid beans that are soft, wrinkled or have lumpy sections along the length.

OASIS has much more information on peas & beans.
