Summer time is the time for locally grown green beans.
This is a simple salad that goes great with BBQ. For some color use some red onion instead of the usual yellow one. A bit of fresh parsley gives it a nice taste.
I grow a pot of savoury on my balcony. Here in Germany it is called Bohnenkraut as in beans herb.
Cooking the beans with a couple of twigs of savoury makes them even better.
Do you like your beans on the squeaky side or more on the cooked side?
I prefare them on the cooked side. But I put them into cold water to stop the beans from getting grey after cooking.
salad dressing:
4 tbsp olive oil
2 tbsp pink balsamic vinegar
1 red onion
parsley
a pinch of smoked sea salt
a pinch of fleur de sel
black pepper
When I chop my onions I start the kettle to get a bit of boiling water to soak the onions in for 1 minute.
