The Secret Ingredient To Have Your Green Bean Casserole Stand Out This Thanksgiving
By Riya Anne Polcastro
Everyone loves a classic green bean casserole, but you can spruce up your recipe with Worcestershire sauce to really make it stand out this holiday season.
Worcestershire sauce is an ingredient that gives a variety of dishes an extra oomph that will take them from pretty good to spectacular by adding layers of flavors.
Worcestershire sauce's umami nature will add depth, especially if you're using canned green beans since they tend to lose some of their flavor compared to fresh ones.
Although not all recipes include it, a few dashes of Worcestershire can also transform canned mushroom soup into something more delectable by drawing out sophisticated flavors.
If you don't have Worcestershire sauce on hand, you can substitute a few dashes of soy sauce or a dollop of umami mayo to add a sophisticated flavor to your casserole.
