Lemon Butter Haricot Vert 🥬

5 from 3 votes

I have been in many commercial kitchens that tried to pass off green beans as Haricot Vert. I can guarantee you that they are not the same, and NO! Haricot vert is not a fancy name for green beans. Haricot vert is thinner, longer, and more tender than its traditional green bean counterpart.
