MARINATED GREEN BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• Trim the green beans as needed. Set them aside. Prepare a large bowl of ice water and set it aside.
• If you're using a steam basket, choose a pot that will fit the basket. Fill the pot with an inch of water and bring it to a boil or bring a 1/2 inch of water to a boil in a frying pan. Or put the beans in a microwave-safe container with 2 tablespoons of water.
• Put the green beans in a steamer basket over the boiling water (or in the frying pan with the water), cover, and cook until as tender as you like: 3 minutes for crisp-tender green beans and closer to 6 minutes for fully cooked beans. Or microwave in 1-minute intervals until the desired temperature is reached.
• Once the beans are steamed , immediately plunge them in the ice water. Swish the beans around until they're completely cool. Dry them thoroughly. Put the dried green beans in a shallow dish.
• Peel and mince the shallot or onion, vinegar, and salt in a small bowl. Whisk the sugar, mustard, and oil into the shallot mixture. Pour the dressing over the green beans, toss so all the green beans are coated with the dressing, cover the container, and chill at least 1 hour and up to overnight.

SMASHED GREEN BEAN SALAD WITH CRISPY SHALLOTS

Steps:

• Working in 2 batches, place green beans in a large resealable plastic or silicone bag. Seal bag and whack beans with a rolling pin to split the skins, break beans into smaller pieces, and soften the insides without completely pulverizing them. Transfer beans to large bowl with dressing. Add onion and toss, massaging with your hands to break beans down further and coat. Let sit at room temperature at least 1 hour or chill overnight.
• Using your hands, lift beans out of bowl and transfer to a platter, leaving excess liquid behind. Whisk oil and reserved 2 Tbsp. dressing to combine, then drizzle over beans. Gently mix in peanuts. Top with shallots.

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the shallot and cook, stirring occasionally, until the shallot is just golden, about 2 minutes. Add the green beans, increase the heat to high, and cook, stirring occasionally, until the beans are heated through, about 4 minutes.
