Provided by adapted by Christina Conte

Categories     Side Dishes

Time 18m

Number Of Ingredients 5

12 oz (340 g) fresh green beans (or use frozen)
about 1 tsp salt
1 clove garlic (medium sized) -optional
1.5 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tsp red wine vinegar -optional

Steps:

  • Snap off the end(s) of the green beans and wash well (if they are fresh). If the beans are really long, you can cut/snap them in half. Frozen bean will be ready to use.
  • Heat enough water in a pot to just cover the beans and bring to a boil. When boiling, toss in the beans. Cover and simmer for 5 minutes then add about ½ tsp of salt. Check to see if they are ready, but you may need to continue cooking for another 1 to 5 minutes. The size of the beans will determine how long they need to cook (mine were ready in about 8 mins).
  • If you want to cool them quickly, or you might have cooked them longer than you wanted to, run them under cold water. If not, just drain and put into a bowl.
  • Add the sliced garlic (if using). If not using garlic, you can add a strong wine vinegar. In Italy, it's either with garlic or vinegar, but not both (according to my mother). Drizzle the extra virgin olive oil over the beans. Add the red wine vinegar if you didn't add garlic, and finally, salt if necessary (it will almost definitely need more salt).
  • Toss and mix well and either serve immediately, or refrigerate if serving cold.

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.

Time 1h20m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 pounds fresh green beans, trimmed
½ cup balsamic vinegar
⅓ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 small sweet onion, thinly sliced

2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley

1 teaspoon salt
freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot with lightly salted water to a boil over high heat. Add beans and cook, uncovered, until soft but still firm to the bite, 7 to 10 minutes. Check often so beans don't overcook.
