The message
from " Jeanne Stockdale" contains these words:

I agree about beans being frozen - they go very soggy and lose their
flavour - does anyone out there know how to successfully freeze runner beans
so that they still retain a "bite"?

Cut beans and put them into just enough boiling water to cover them.
Bring back to the boil and seeth for two and a half minutes. Cool the
beans in the water and put beans into freezer bags. Add the water you
blanched them in, knot bags and freeze.
