String Bean Casserole Salad Recipes

STRING BEAN "CASSEROLE" SALAD

Steps:

• Fill up a large bowl of water and a few handfuls of ice, set aside.
• Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add a heavy pinch of salt, the green beans, and the bell peppers. Stir to dissolve the salt and cook the vegetables until bright and still crisp, just a few minutes. With a sieve or slotted spoon, remove the vegetables to the bowl of ice water to stop them from over cooking. Once the vegetables are cooled remove them to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and pat dry.
• To prepare the mushrooms: In a small saucepot on medium heat add 2 cups of water, the vinegar, mushrooms, garlic, thyme, and 1 teaspoon salt. Stir to dissolve the salt, cover and cook on medium heat for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat and let it rest covered for 15 minutes more.
• To make the vinaigrette: Whisk together the mustard, 4 tablespoons of the liquid the mushrooms are soaking in, and olive oil in a small bowl. Season with some salt and a grind or two of pepper.
• Shake the excess liquid off the mushrooms and add them to a large bowl along with the cooked vegetables and the vinaigrette. Toss and serve with fried onions sprinkled over the top.

CREAMY GREEN BEAN SALAD

Steps:

• For the salad: Melt the butter in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms to the melted butter and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and have released their moisture, about 6 minutes. Stir in the thyme, Worcestershire, celery, garlic and salt to taste. Cook until the garlic and thyme are aromatic and the celery is starting to brown on the edges, about 2 minutes. The celery should still be lightly crisp. Add more salt if desired. Take off the heat and spread on a sheet tray to cool.
• Meanwhile, bring a medium pot of water to a boil. Set up a large bowl of ice water and line a sheet tray with a paper towel or kitchen towel. Generously season the boiling water with salt. Add the green beans and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Remove with a spider or drain in a colander and transfer to the ice bath. Once cooled, transfer the green beans to the lined sheet tray and thoroughly pat dry.
• For the creamy Parmesan dressing: Whisk together the yogurt, Parmesan, mayonnaise, sherry vinegar, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon pepper in a large bowl. Refrigerate if not using immediately.
• To assemble: To the bowl of dressing, add the green beans, mushroom mixture and romaine. Toss to combine and everything is fully coated. Transfer to a serving dish and top with the almonds and crispy fried onions. Serve immediately.
