Method

Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil.

Add green beans, return to a boil, and cook just until bright green and crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.

Drain and cool in cold water, then drain again and pat dry. Cut beans in half crosswise if large.

In a large bowl, stir together crème fraîche, salt and pepper. Add beans and toss until coated. (Beans can be made to this point up to 1 day ahead; cover and refrigerate.)

Serve at room temperature sprinkled with walnuts and chives.
