Romano Bean Salad
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh romano or green beans, trimmed
- 2 cloves garlic, sliced
- 2 Tbs olive oil
- 2 fresh mint leaves, torn
- salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- 2 Tbs white wine vinegar
- 2 mint leaves, for garnish
Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add beans and cook uncovered until nearly tender, about 5 minutes. Drain well, and set aside in a large bowl. Smash garlic, olive oil, mint, and salt using mortar and pestle. Pour vinegar and half of olive oil mixture over beans and toss well. Transfer beans to a resealable freezer bag. Pour remaining olive oil mixture into bag, squeeze out all air, seal and refrigerate for a minimum of 4 hours. Remove beans from refrigerator, top with fresh mint and serve.
