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.

Provided by barbara

Categories     Salad     Vegetable Salad Recipes     Green Bean Salad Recipes

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
1 clove garlic, minced
2 teaspoons chopped fresh parsley
1 teaspoon white sugar
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.
  • Combine vinegar, olive oil, onion, garlic, parsley, sugar, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
  • Drain cooked green beans and mix with dressing in the bowl while still warm. Allow to marinate at room temperature for at least 1 hour. Serve at room temperature or chilled.

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, crisp green beans: Look for beans that are bright green in color and have no blemishes. Avoid beans that are wilted or have brown spots.
  • Blanch the green beans: Blanching helps to preserve the beans' color and crispness. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender-crisp. Immediately remove the beans from the boiling water and plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Use a variety of ingredients: This salad is a great way to use up leftover vegetables. Feel free to add other vegetables that you like, such as carrots, celery, bell peppers, or snap peas.
  • Make the dressing ahead of time: The dressing for this salad can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to a week. This makes it a great option for busy weeknights.
  • Serve the salad chilled: This salad is best served chilled. You can chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving, or you can make it ahead of time and chill it overnight.

Conclusion:

This Asian Fresh Green Bean Salad is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With its bright flavors and crunchy texture, this salad is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
