Green Beans with Tarragon Vinaigrette

Ingredients

2 pounds fresh green beans, ends trimmed
5 teaspoons red wine vinegar
½ teaspoon mustard (preferably Dijon)
½ teaspoon kosher salt
1 pinch pepper
¼ cup olive oil
3 teaspoons finely chopped tarragon

Instructions

1. To make the dressing: Stir together the vinegar, mustard, salt, and pepper and slowly whisk in the olive oil until completely emulsified. Then whisk in the tarragon. Set aside.

2. Bring a large pot of water to boil and prepare a ice water bath to the side. Cook the beans for approximately three minutes, or until easily speared with a fork. Then immediately scoop the beans into the water bath and swish them around for a few seconds to stop the cooking.

3. Drain the beans and pat them dry, then toss them with the dressing and serve.
