  3. Hi Rose, you seem like a very experienced cook so I would like some advice on cooking green bean soup. How do you cook it such that the beans will be soft and intact but not mushy? Does the secret lie in the soaking method or the cooking method? Your help is much appreciated and your site is really interesting, thanks!
