Ingredients

  • Coarse salt 1/2 pound string beans 2 cucumbers (1 1/4 pounds) 1/4 pound oil-cured black olives, pitted, torn in half 1/4 cup fresh flat-leaf parsley leaves 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard 1 tablespoon red-wine vinegar Freshly ground pepper 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil

Directions

Fill a large bowl with ice and water; set aside. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Salt the water; add the string beans, and cook until bright green and just tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain, and transfer to ice bath until cool. Drain, and cut in half lengthwise.

Peel cucumbers, and split lengthwise. Remove seeds using a melon baller or a spoon. Cut into 1/2-inch-thick slices on the diagonal. Combine with string beans, olives, and parsley leaves in a medium serving bowl.

Place mustard, red-wine vinegar, and salt and pepper to taste in a small bowl; whisk to combine. Slowly add olive oil, whisking constantly until well combined. Toss with salad just before serving.
