This bread has been our family's favorite for many years, and now I sent it to my out-of-town children. I added the aniseed to the recipe, which gives the bread a delicious, distinctive licorice flavor. It makes wonderful toast!

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/4 cup dried breadcrumbs, divided
2 teaspoons dried basil
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • If using fresh beans, rinse them & cut them into 3"-to'4" pieces, before steaming them for about 15 minutes, or until they are only slightly crisp. Set beans aside.
  • In a large bowl whisk together breadcrumbs (I use crumbs from winter wheat or cracked wheat bread), basil, salt, pepper, thyme, oregano, parsley, garlic powder & Parmesan cheese.
  • Add vegetable oil to crumb mixture & stir well, before setting aside 2 tablespoons of the crumb mixture for topping the casserole.
  • In an ovenproof dish, combine green beans & crumb mixture, then sprinkle with reserved crumb mixture.
  • Bake about 30 minutes or until top is golden & crispy.
