Long Beans are an ancient vegetable, with wild varieties of these plants still growing in Southeast Asia.  They have a very pronounced flavor, a distinctly beany taste, and they are not as sweet like the green bean.  Long beans work best briefly steamed, stir-fried, or braised, but also hold up well when added to stews. If you want them to be more juicy, blanch before stir frying. Long beans should be cut into 1-2 inch lengths for cooking. They should be stir fried or boiled, rather than steamed, which tends to make them too soft.
