I've always sliced runner beans from the bottom up, holding the bean against my thumb. Today my sister in law has come to stay and when she sliced the beans for supper I was amazed to see her slicing them from top to bottom. I've never seen anyone slice them like that before. Likewise she had never seen anyone slice them from bottom to top when I showed her my method. I guess we each do them the way our mothers did, but I'd be interested to know how others go about it.
I have never got on with those gadgets you pull the beans through.
