THREE BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• Drain and rinse all the beans in a colander. Set aside and allow to fully dry.
• Grate the garlic on a rasp over a large bowl. Whisk in the honey, Dijon, vinegar, olive oil, zaatar, salt, pepper, lemon juice, 1 tablespoon mint, 1 tablespoon parsley and 1 tablespoon tarragon. Add the celery, diced onion and the beans, then 1 more tablespoon of each herb, and toss to coat. Garnish with the remaining tablespoon of each herb. Serve immediately or store in the fridge until ready to serve, for up to 3 days.

HERBY THREE-BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• In a dry medium saucepan (one large enough to hold the green beans in Step 4), toast coriander seeds over medium heat, stirring frequently, until fragrant, 2 minutes. Transfer to a small bowl to cool. Once the seeds are cool enough to handle, use a mortar and pestle to crack them, or place them on a cutting board and crack with the flat side of a chef's knife. Set aside.
• Fill the same saucepan you used for the coriander with salted water and bring to a boil.
• While waiting for the water to boil, combine 1/4 cup vinegar, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in large mixing bowl. Slowly whisk in olive oil. Add onion along with fennel or celery, or both, and toss. Set aside to marinate for at least 10 minutes while preparing the rest of the salad.
• To the boiling water, add the green beans and blanch for 2 to 3 minutes, until they turn bright green and are crisp-tender. Immediately drain beans in a colander, then run cold tap water over them to stop the cooking. Once cool, pat them dry.
• Add the blanched green beans, chickpeas, cannellini beans, herbs and toasted coriander seeds to the marinated onions. Season with remaining salt and pepper, and gently toss to evenly combine. Taste and add more salt and vinegar if needed. (Keep in mind that you'll also be adding flaky salt to finish.) Drizzle with olive oil and flaky sea salt, and serve.
