salt |
2 tablespoons white-wine vinegar |
1/2 teaspoon dijon mustard |

Directions:
1. In a large skillet bring 1-inch of water to a boil, add the haricots verts and simmer for 4 minutes or until just tender. Drain and refresh under cold water. Pat the haricots verts dry and chill them, covered, for 2 hours. Salt tomato halves and invert on rack and let sit for 30 minutes.
