Yield Makes 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 pounds fresh green beans
Kosher salt
1/4 cup white miso (fermented soybean paste)
3 tablespoons thinly sliced scallions, dark-green parts only, divided
3 tablespoons unseasoned rice vinegar
2 tablespoons Japanese prepared hot mustard (not wasabi), or 1 tablespoon English mustard powder mixed with 1 tablespoon water
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon sugar
1/4 cup sliced almonds, toasted
Ingredient info: Also known as shiro miso, white miso can be found in the refrigerated Asian foods section of better supermarkets and at natural foods stores and Japanese markets. Japanese hot mustard is sold in a small tube or tin; unlike wasabi, it is made with mustard seeds and processed with other seasonings. Look for English mustard powder, a hot mustard, at better supermarkets and at specialty foods stores.

Steps:

  • Working in 3 batches, cook green beans in a large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender. Transfer to a large bowl of ice water to cool. Drain well. Trim beans; cut in half on a sharp diagonal. DO AHEAD: Can be made 8 hours ahead. Arrange cooked beans in batches in paper towels, roll into cylinders, and transfer to plastic bags; seal and chill.
  • Whisk miso, 2 tablespoons scallions, vinegar, mustard, oil, and sugar in a small bowl. Season dressing to taste with salt. Place green beans in a large bowl. Pour dressing over; toss to coat. Garnish with almonds and remaining 1 tablespoon scallions. Serve warm or at room temperature.

The green beans were a bit too crisp for my taste, but the flavor was spot-on.

The recipe was missing some important details, like how long to cook the green beans. I ended up overcooking them.

The green beans were a bit bland, but the miso-almond sauce was delicious. I'll try adding some extra spices next time.
