GREEN BEAN CASSEROLE
An updated version of the '50s classic. In his restaurant, Brooklyn Star in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, chef Joaquin Baca serves this still sizzling, in individual cast iron skillets, straight from his brick oven. His philosophy is to never serve food from cans, that you can make yourself.
