The Golden Rule
"Never rush the medium-low heat. High heat will simply burn the garlic and scorch the beans before they have a chance to develop that magnificent golden crust."

Chef's Notes
Butter beans are the unsung heroes of the pantry. Treat them with respect, dry them thoroughly, and they will reward you with a texture that is crispy on the outside and wonderfully creamy on the inside.
Pro Tip
Do not skip patting the beans dry! Moisture is the sworn enemy of a good crisp. Also, use a good quality extra virgin olive oil because it forms the flavorful base of this entire dish.
Kitchen Catastrophe Warning
If you dump soaking wet beans into screaming hot oil without drying them first, your kitchen will turn into an involuntary frying-pan fireworks show, and your beans will steam instead of crisping.
The Jester's Corner
Royal Court Comedy
I suppose if you can't afford to feed the peasants roast swan, a handful of glorified beans will have to suffice for the royal banquet.
The Culinary Science
When you add the white wine vinegar at the end, the sudden acid shock lowers the pH, brightening the flavor profile and cutting through the dense plant proteins in the beans.
