From Bon Appétit (Feb 2001). This surprisingly easy and delicious salad will impress any dinner guest! You can also use cider instead of the juice. Ingredients:
1/2 cup frozen apple juice concentrate, thawed |
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar |
2 tablespoons vegetable oil |
2 teaspoons dijon mustard |
1 teaspoon mustard seeds |
6 ounces green beans, trimmed, cut in half on deep diagonal |
4 cups packed baby greens (about half of 4.5-ounce package) |
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion |
2 large radishes, trimmed, halved, thinly sliced |
1 tablespoon finely chopped bread and butter pickles (optional) |
Directions:
1. Boil apple concentrate in small saucepan over medium heat until reduced to 1/4 cup, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat. Whisk in vinegar, oil, mustard, and mustard seeds. Season vinaigrette with salt and pepper. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Rewarm before using.). 2. Cook beans in medium pot of boiling salted water until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes; drain well. Transfer beans to large bowl; cool slightly. Add greens, onion, radishes, and pickles. Toss with enough vinaigrette to coat. |
