Cold Marinated Green Bean Salad image

I first had this cold green bean salad in Berlin, Germany. The fresh dill and onion in the vinaigrette really brightens it. I have found that this dish goes really well with potatoes.

Time 2h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound fresh green beans, trimmed
¼ cup chopped fresh dill
2 tablespoons minced red onion
2 tablespoons white wine vinegar
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
½ teaspoon salt, or more to taste
¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add green beans and cook until crisp tender, about 7 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water (or submerge in a bowl of ice water) to stop the cooking process. Transfer to a bowl.
  • While the beans are cooling, combine dill, onion, vinegar, Dijon mustard, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl. Slowly add oil, whisking to combine. Let stand for 10 minutes.
  • Pour dressing over the green beans, tossing gently to coat. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to 3 days before serving.
