New Potato and Green Bean Salad
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard 2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice 1 clove garlic, minced 1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 1/2 pounds small red-skinned potatoes, stems trimmed 3/4 pound haricots verts or other green beans, stems trimmed 1 small red onion, coarsely chopped 1/4 cup fresh basil, chopped
Whisk first 5 ingredients in medium bowl. Gradually whisk in oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Steam potatoes until tender. Cool; cut into quarters. Cook green beans in large pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Drain. Transfer beans to bowl of ice water and cool. Drain. Cut beans in half. Combine green beans, potatoes, onion and basil in large bowl. Add dressing; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
Note: When I can't find fresh beans, I use a package of frozen French style green beans and thaw in a colander (to allow draining of any excess liquid).
