ROASTED HARICOTS VERTS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Trim the stem ends only from the haricots verts and place them on two sheet pans. Drizzle the beans with 2 tablespoons of the oil (total) and spread them out in one layer. Sprinkle them with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1 teaspoon pepper. Roast for 10 minutes, until crisp-tender. Serve hot.
HARICOTS VERTS, TOMATO AND CUCUMBER SALAD
Steps:
- In a large skillet bring 1-inch of water to a boil, add the haricots verts and simmer for 4 minutes or until just tender. Drain and refresh under cold water. Pat the haricots verts dry and chill them, covered, for 2 hours. Salt tomato halves and invert on rack and let sit for 30 minutes. In a bowl combine the vinegar, mustard, salt, pepper and Worcestershire, add the oil in a stream, whisking, and whisk the dressing until emulsified. Add the dill and combine. Arrange the haricots verts, tomatoes and cucumber slices decoratively on a platter, garnish the vegetables with the minced egg yolk and white and spoon the dressing over the salad.
PERFECT HARICOTS VERTS
Steps:
- Bring a pot of well-salted water to a boil over medium heat. Set up a bowl of ice water and season it generously with salt.
- Add the beans to the boiling water and cook them until they are tender, 4 to 5 minutes. Bite a bean to be sure they are properly cooked. Put them immediately in the bowl of salted ice water to stop the cooking or to "shock" them. When they are cold, remove them from the water and let them dry a little.
- Coat a large saute pan with both clarified butter and olive oil. Bring the pan to a medium-high heat, add the shallots and brown. Add the haricot vert, season with salt and saute until all the beans are coated with oil and hot. Serve immediately or later at room temperature.
