EASY COLD GREEN BEAN SALAD



Easy Cold Green Bean Salad image

What makes this cold green bean salad so good is that the beans marinate while they are still warm--that way the beans soak up the vinaigrette and become more flavorful.

GREEN BEAN SALAD WITH BASIL, BALSAMIC, AND PARMESAN



Green Bean Salad with Basil, Balsamic, and Parmesan image

Is your garden overflowing with green beans? Whip up this green bean salad recipe with basil, Parmesan, and balsamic vinegar for a great summer side dish.

Provided by Elise Bauer

Categories     Salad     Bean Salad     Green Bean

Time 30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds trimmed green beans, cut to 2 to 3 inch long pieces
Salt
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion (or shallots)
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3/4 cup chopped fresh basil leaves
3/4 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese (about 1 1/2 ounces)
Freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Soak the onions: Place the chopped onions in a small bowl of water. This will help take the edge off the onions. Let sit while you prepare the rest of the salad.
  • Blanch the green beans: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil (2 tablespoons of salt for 2 quarts of water). Add the green beans to the water and blanch only for about 2 minutes or so, until the beans are just barely cooked through, but still crisp. Fresh young beans should cook quickly. Older, tougher beans may take longer.
  • Shock in ice water: While the beans are cooking, prepare a large bowl of ice water. When the beans are ready, use a slotted spoon to remove them from the boiling water to the ice water to stop the cooking. Drain the green beans and the red onions.
  • Toss with red onion, balsamic, and Parmesan: Place the green beans, red onion, and chopped basil in a large bowl. Sprinkle in the olive oil, toss to coat. Sprinkle in the balsamic and Parmesan cheese. Toss to combine. Season to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Chill until ready to serve.
