Time 25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 1/2 lbs green beans, trimmed
1/3 cup coarsely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons red wine vinegar
1/2 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon anchovy paste
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Fill a 6 to 8 quart pot full of water, add a teaspoon of salt, and bring it to a boil.
  • Prepare a bowl of ice water.
  • Place the beans in the salted boiling water, uncovered, and cook until just tender, about 6 to 8 minutes.
  • Transfer to a colander, drain, and immediately plunge into the bowl of ice water to halt the cooking.
  • When the beans have cooled, drain and pat dry.
  • In a blender, combine the parsley, mayonnaise, sour cream, vinegar, lemon juice, anchovy paste, salt, and pepper, and blend until smooth to make the dressing.
  • Place beans in a bowl and combine with the dressing; toss to coat.
  • Serve and enjoy!
  • Note: you can make the dressing 1 day ahead and store covered in refrigerator, if desired.
