Steps:
- Soak beans overnight. Drain and place in a saucepan with water to cover and add carrot and onion. Bring to boil and simmer for 30 minutes, skimming off any foam that rises to the surface. Add salt and cook until beans are tender (about one hour). Drain and remove and discard carrot and onion.
- Make dressing. Peel the garlic and press it with the tines of a fork or through a garlic press. Place tablespoon of beans in a mixing bowl with garlic and mash to a puree.
- Add mustard and vinegar and season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Gradually add olive oil in a steady stream, whisking constantly, until dressing has reached the consistency of mayonnaise. Add parsley, mint and beans and toss. Correct seasoning and serve at room temperature.

[email protected]This salad is just okay. It's not bad, but it's not great either. I think it needs something else to make it more interesting. Maybe some chopped nuts or crumbled bacon.

[email protected]I followed the recipe exactly and the salad turned out really watery. I think it would be better to use less dressing or to drain the white beans before adding them to the salad.
Roaming Peace
[email protected]This salad is a bit bland for my taste. I think it needs more seasoning. I would also add some chopped red onion or shallots for extra flavor.

[email protected]This salad is a great way to use up leftover white beans. It's also a very healthy salad, packed with protein and fiber. I like to add a bit of diced cucumber to the salad for extra crunch.

[email protected]This salad was a hit at my last potluck! Everyone loved the combination of white beans, mint, and feta. I used canned white beans to save time, and the salad still turned out great. I also added a bit of lemon zest to brighten up the flavors.
