[edit] Ingredients

Here are three shades of green: beans, celery and olive. Each brings a unique

flavor and texture to this salad.

1

pound green beans, ends trimmed

Salt to taste

¼

cup extra-virgin olive oil

2

tablespoons red wine vinegar

1

small clove garlic, minced

Pinch crushed red pepper flakes

1

stalk celery, trimmed and chopped

½

cup pitted green olives, chopped

[edit] Preparation

Step 1

Bring a large saucepan of water to a boil. Add the beans and salt to taste and cook until the beans are tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Drain the beans and rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking. Pat the beans dry. (If not using immediately, wrap the beans in a kitchen towel and set aside at room temperature for as long as 3 hours.)

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, garlic and red pepper flakes and salt to taste. Add the beans and toss to combine. Add the celery and olives and toss again. Serve immediately.
