4 teaspoons Sherry vinegar
1 tablespoon minced shallot
1/2 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh tarragon
1/2 lb frisée (French curly endive), torn into bite-size pieces

Tips:

  • Choose fresh, crisp green beans: Look for beans that are a vibrant green color and have no blemishes or bruises.
  • Trim the beans: Cut off the ends of the beans and remove any strings.
  • Blanch the beans: This will help them retain their color and crispness. To blanch the beans, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the beans and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Drain the beans and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Make the vinaigrette: Combine the olive oil, vinegar, mustard, honey, tarragon, salt, and pepper in a bowl and whisk until well blended.
  • Toss the beans with the vinaigrette: Add the blanched beans to the vinaigrette and toss to coat.
  • Serve immediately: Green beans with tarragon vinaigrette are best served immediately, while they are still warm.

Conclusion:

Green beans with tarragon vinaigrette is a delicious and healthy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. The beans are crisp and tender, and the vinaigrette is flavorful and tangy. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
