I eat so many long beans. The neighbors no longer want them because they’re still working through last week’s harvest. They are still producing furiously. I am afraid.

You can freeze them or can them if you have a pressure canner.

I have grown those two seasons in a row now and love them. Best producer and they are great.

Nice! What kind of long beans are they?

Blanch and freeze.

Jealous! 😍 what’s your favorite way to cook these?

Take them to a food bank! People who suffer food insecurity almost never get fresh produce.

Want to grow these next year! Are these the same as noodle beans? Love them 😻

Please tell me you’ve tried them pickled! So so good.

Gah! I’m jealous! My noodle beans have been overtaken by my cucumbers and I haven’t got a single bean yet!

Can them!

I do not like how they taste as green beans, so I allow them to mature and dry out. I use the dried beans instead.

Bring them to nearest food bank

That’s what I need to grow next summer ☀️

I like your simple but effective trellis!

Wow, those are impressive. What variety is that?

Wow mine are just not flowering

Enjoy them now. Last year my wife’s long bean plant gave us huge amounts, this year was a bust.

I have the red variety of those beans and we have been eating it almost everyday. I add it to almost all the dishes i make: stew, garlicky beans, peppered beef, pancit bihon…
Flashy-Nothing-Dang
Freeze!!!

Plant blue lake beans and more neighbors will take them.

Do they taste like normal sized green beans?

This is the way of the long bean. You will long for a day when there are no more. Then, you will long for more beans. This is the way of the long bean.

As others mentioned, canning, pickling, and freezing are all great methods. Also, you can let them mature and harvest them as a dry bean. That way you can get a bit more variety out of them! Speaking of which, they also have a red variety of long bean. I like to grow both
I never thought of doing a teepee like that. I think I’ll try it out this weekend.

As a Thai person – fish cakes forever! 🥰

One of my favs! My family uses them to make thum mak tua, a Laos dish where you crush garlic, hot peppers, and slightly crush tomatoes, then add lime, sugar, msg(optional) and fish sauce and throw the beans in! It’s similar to papaya salad (thum mak khung) but just beans instead of papaya

Jealous! Going to have to try growing these next year
We accidentally grew them one year and got a big hoot out of measuring them with our wiener.
jesuschristjulia
I have the same problem. This is the first year growing them on a semi large scale. Do you taste the difference between long and 10-12” length beans? My mom tells me to pick them when they’re short.
Do not fear. They freeze well.

What kind of beans are those? I can never get pole beans or bush beans to do much of anything and am game to try long beans. 😊

Freeze them for soups
They look awesome
Give them to some Thai ppl if you know any – they’ll love them it’s a staple
Am Thai if ur skeptical, we just eat them raw or in a salad
I just picked my first bush beans! Four of them! Woo hoo!🤣
