    Source of Recipe


    nikibone.com

    List of Ingredients




    2 tablespoons shallot, minced
    2 tablespoons lemon juice
    1/4 cup red wine vinegar
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    1 ounce walnut extract
    1 teaspoon sugar
    1 1/2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed at ends
    1 cup

    Recipe



    Combine the shallot, lemon juice, vinegar and walnut extract in a mixing bowl. Chill in freezer but do not let freeze. Slowly add the oil while whisking so as to incorporate it completely. Add the sugar if the dressing is too acidic. Chill completely in freezer whisking occasionally so the dressing doesn't freeze. Steam the beans until they turn bright green and are just tender. This will take about 15 minutes. Toss the beans at about five minutes and again at ten minutes so they cook evenly. Remove them from the heat and place in the cold vinaigrette immediately. Toss for about 2 minutes until coated well. Chill. Serve as soon as chilled
