• Food Network Kitchens suggest caution in consuming raw and lightly-cooked eggs due to the slight risk of Salmonella or other food-borne illness. To reduce this risk, we recommend you use only fresh, properly-refrigerated, clean, grade A or AA eggs with intact shells, and avoid contact between the yolks or whites and the shell.

COLD GREEN BEAN SALAD WITH FRENCH MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE DRESSING

Steps:

• First, prepare your green beans by cutting off both ends. Wash your beans and keep aside.
• Keep a pot with water to boil and once the water boils place the green beans into the water.
• Cook green beans for 6-7 minutes exactly or until they are cooked but still crunchy. That way they will remain green too and won't overcook and get mushy which doesn't look too appetizing.
• Then take the green beans from the heat once ready and place in a bowl with ice water. That way you stop the cooking process and the beans will cool down fast. Keep for 2-3 minutes in the ice water then strain the green beans from the water. Keep aside.
• Then prepare your vinaigrette. Place the mustard with the vinegar, salt, and pepper in a bowl. Mix the content well with a fork.
• Next, pour in the oil. Beat the dressing until the ingredients are well incorporated.
• Pour the vinaigrette over the green beans and serve cold.
