Yield Serves 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar
2 tablespoons plain low-fat yogurt
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/3 cup walnuts, toasted and finely chopped
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 tablespoons walnut oil
1 1/2 pounds fingerling potatoes, cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick rounds
6 ounces haricots verts or other green beans, trimmed
3 ounces baby arugula

Steps:

  • 1. Whisk together vinegar, yogurt, mustard, and the toasted nuts in a small bowl; season with salt and pepper. Add walnut oil in a slow, steady stream, whisking until emulsified.
  • 2. Bring a medium saucepan of salted water to a boil. Add potatoes, and cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer potatoes to a colander to drain. Return pan of water to a boil.
  • 3. Prepare an ice-water bath. Add green beans to boiling water and cook until tender and bright green, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to ice water to stop the cooking. Drain and cut into 2-inch pieces.
  • 4. Arrange arugula, potatoes, and green beans on a platter. Season with salt and pepper. Drizzle with dressing, toss to coat, and serve.

Tips:

  • For the best flavor, use fresh green beans. If using canned green beans, be sure to drain and rinse them well before using.
  • To blanch the green beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp. Immediately remove the green beans from the boiling water and plunge them into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • For a more flavorful salad, marinate the green beans in the dressing for at least 30 minutes before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld together.
  • Feel free to add other vegetables to the salad, such as chopped tomatoes, cucumbers, or red onion.

Conclusion:

Martha Stewart's Green Bean Salad is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of crisp green beans, sweet red onion, and tangy dressing is sure to please everyone at your table. With a few simple tips, you can easily make this salad at home.
