REC: Citrus Green Bean Salad..

This is not exactly what I would call "mustardy," but it is made with mustard, and is absolutely delicious!

CITRUS GREEN BEAN SALAD

2 pounds green beans, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces (I halved them)

1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1 tablespoon finely grated orange zest
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon sugar (I omitted this)
1 teaspoon coarse-grain mustard (I used creamy Dijon)
3/4 teaspoon salt (I used a few pinches, to taste)
1/2 cup olive oil (I used about 6 Tbsp extra virgin olive oil)
1/2 cup finely chopped red onion
Freshly ground pepper, to taste

In a large saucepan of boiling water, cook the beans until just crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. (I steamed them). Drain and set aside.

In jar with a tight fitting lid, shake together all remaining ingredients. (In a medium mixing bowl, I whisked together all the ingredients, except the oil, then gradually whisked in the oil).

Toss beans with dressing shortly before serving. Serve at room temperature or slightly chilled.

I have been making this lately with the fresh small green beans from COSTCO and they are really ...

wonderful and so easy! The first time I used red balsamic and the second time, white balsamic. Both were excellent. I'm sure you could use fresh asparagus as well.

Mix softened butter with half as much Dijon mustard and use to sauce

broccoli, cauliflower, green beans, or whatever you fancy. I used it on asparagus last night, very good. You can make it up and keep it in the fridge to use when you like.

 
Rec: Green Beans with Balsamic Glazed Onions (m)

The green beans are coated in a mustard viniagrette. I think this may fit your daughters request....(I use the frozen pearl onions to save time....)


Green Beans with Balsmic-Glazed Onions
Serves 4

"In this recipe, the natural sugar in
balsamic vinegar caramelizes the pearl onions
and adds a touch of sweetness to the
mustard-vinegar sauce."

1 pound pearl onions or one 16-ounce bag
frozen pearl onions, thawed
1/4 cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh thyme
3/4 teaspoon fresh-ground black pepper
1-1/2 pounds green beans
2 tablespoons olive oil
1-1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt

In a large saucepan of boiling water, blanch
the fresh onions, if using, for 1 minute.
Drain, rinse with cold water, and drain well.
Using a small sharp knife, trim the root
ends and slip off the skins.

Heat the oven to 400 Degrees F. In a small
stainless-steel saucepan, combine 2
tablespoons of the balsamic vinegar, the
butter, vegetable oil, thyme, and 1/4
teaspoon of the pepper and stir over
moderately low heat until the butter is
melted. Transfer to a medium bowl, add the
fresh or frozen onions,and toss to coat.
Spread the onions in a single layer on a
baking sheet and roast, stirring often, until
evenly browned, 35 to 40 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a large pot of boiling, salted
water, cook the green beans until tender,
about 4 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold
water, and drain well.

In a medium bowl, combine the olive oil,
mustard, the remaining 2 tablespoons balsamic
vinegar, the salt, and the remaining 1/2
teaspoon pepper.

Remove the onions from the oven and reduce
the oven temperature to 350 Degrees F. Add
the green beans and onions to the dressing
and toss well.

Transfer the vegetables to a large casserole.
Cover and bake until heated through, about
20 minutes.
