Default Freezing green beans.. How?

I want to freeze a lot of green beans and have them crunchy when thawed out.
Any way to do this? If I blanch them then freeze them will they be soft?

Thanks,
Jimmy




I have done this numerous times by dropping the
beans into boiling water for a few minutes, then
taking them out, and letting them cool. Finally
put them into plastic containers - not jammed full
- and into the freezer - and that's it.
