GREEN BEAN RED ONION SALAD
Steps:
- Gather the ingredients.
- Trim the green beans.
- Bring 1/4 cup of water to a boil in a large skillet over high heat. Add the beans, sprinkle with salt, cover, and cook until the beans are crisp-tender and the water is evaporated, about 3 minutes.
- Rinse the beans with cold water, pat them thoroughly dry, and set them aside.
- Meanwhile, peel and halve the onion. Slice it into thin half-moons and set aside. (Rinse the slices with cold water to minimize the strong flavor of raw onion , if you like, just be sure to pat them thoroughly dry before you add them to the salad.)
- In a large bowl (large enough to toss all the vegetables), whisk together the oil, vinegar, and mustard. Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Put the cooked beans and the sliced onions in the bowl with the dressing and toss to coat the beans and onions thoroughly.
- You can serve right away or let everything sit and marinate a bit before serving (if you're going to hold it more than about an hour, cover and chill).

GREEN BEAN AND MINT SALAD
My favorite time to make this salad is early summer, when green beans are super fresh and tender. I especially like to use haricots verts, which are small French green beans that are incredibly sweet.

- On the day, whisk together the remaining oil, vinegar, mint, salt and pepper. Pour over the beans and mix well. Tip into a serving bowl and scatter over the garlic in its oil.
