This was absolutely superb! I couldn't find any hazelnuts locally, so I substituted pine nuts (pignoli) instead. It was a big hit for Saturday lunch with guests. My guests even took my recipe that I had printed out, so I'll have to print another one now! -
* I got totally lucky finding these nuts. Usually can't find them in Arizona. Made it and man, was it good. Totally adding this to the Family Cookbook. * -
So wonderful!!!! The toasted hazelnuts add a unique and perfect flavor booster to the beans and then mix in the lemon, this dish was really top notch!! Thanks for the recipe!!! -
Unfortunately, this recipe was very disappointing. Quite often it's the simple recipes with very few ingredients that are the tastiest - not so in this case, it was extremely bland.
