Green Beans Peas And Turnips In Warm Vinaigrette Food

GREEN BEANS WITH WARM BACON VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Prepare an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Crimp and fold the edges of a double layer of aluminum foil so it resembles a rimmed baking sheet. Put the beans in the center and toss with 1 tablespoon of the oil, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Add 2 tablespoons water.
• Place the foil on the grill cook, tossing the beans occasionally, until lightly charred and tender, about 15 minutes.
• While the beans grill, cook the bacon in a small skillet over medium heat until crisp; transfer to a paper-towel-lined plate to drain. Pour off all but 1 tablespoon of bacon drippings and then stir the mustard, vinegar and remaining 1 tablespoon oil into the skillet until combined.
• Transfer the beans to a servings bowl and pour the warm vinaigrette over top. Toss well, scatter with the cooked bacon and adjust the seasoning with additional salt and pepper.

GREEN BEANS WITH MUSTARD VINAIGRETTE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of salted water to boil. Add the green beans and cook until just tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl of ice water using tongs, pushing the beans down to submerge them. Let cool completely, about 5 minutes, then drain and pat dry.
• Meanwhile, whisk the vinegar, sugar and 1 teaspoon salt in a large bowl. Add the shallots and stir to coat. Let sit until the green beans are ready.
• Whisk the mustard into the shallot mixture, then gradually add the olive oil, whisking constantly, until smooth and thick. Add the green beans and toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

Steps:

• Blanch green beans in boiling water, then plunge them into an ice bath to stop the cooking.
• Toss with a vinaigrette made with olive oil, lemon juice and a tiny bit of minced garlic. (To turn this into a main dish, sear some tuna until crusty on the outside, but still raw in the middle. Cut into thick slices or chunks, and toss with the green beans and dressing.)
