Ingredients

The following ingredients have 6 Servings
  • 1 1/2 pounds green beans (trimmed)

Instruction

  • Blanch the green beans in a large pot of boiling salted water until tender-crisp, 2-3 minutes.
  • Remove the green beans from the boiling water, place in a bowl of water with ice cubes for a few minutes to stop the cooking, and then drain and dry well.
  • Whisk together the vinegar and Dijon mustard in a small bowl. Stir in the salt and pepper.
  • Add the cool green beans to a large bowl and toss in the walnuts, cranberries and shallots and drizzle in the vinaigrette. Place on a platter or serving dish.
