Green Bean Salad

List of Ingredients




1 pound green beans
1½ teaspoons salt
1 medium-sized shallot (3 to 4 tablespoons minced)
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar, or any vinegar
2 teaspoons grainy European-style mustard
½ teaspoon (freshly ground) black pepper



Recipe



Bring a large pot of water to a boil with 1 teaspoon salt.

Trim beans and cut them into 1-inch pieces. Plunge them into boiling water, and cook 5 minutes or until tender but still firm and bright green. Drain, run under cold water and spread on absorbent toweling.

Mince the shallot, and put it in a medium-sized serving bowl. Add olive oil, vinegar, mustard, ½ teaspoon salt and pepper, and blend with a fork until salt is dissolved. Add beans, and stir to coat them all over with dressing. Chill or serve immediately.

Serves 4.
