This dish has been done before, but I break with tradition by adding cinnamon. Sam and Sam Clark, of Moro restaurant, introduced me to the rather wonderful combination of green beans and cinnamon, describing it as “naturally perfect.” They served green beans with a walnut and cinnamon tarator. The recipe below would be lovely with walnuts, too – but here it is without.
