Ingredients

8 ounces green beans, stem ends removed, halved on the diagonal

4 ounces yellow wax beans, stem ends removed, halved on the diagonal

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard

2 tablespoons red-wine vinegar

2 tablespoons olive oil

Coarse salt and ground pepper

1 can (15 ounces) cannellini beans, rinsed and drained

Preparation

Fill a large bowl with ice water; set aside. Set a steamer basket in a large pot with a lid. Fill with enough water to come just below basket; bring to a boil.

Place green and wax beans in basket; reduce heat to a simmer. Cover pot, and steam until beans are crisp-tender, 6 to 8 minutes. With tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer beans to ice water. Drain, and pat dry.

In a medium bowl, whisk together mustard, vinegar, and oil; season with salt and pepper. Add green, wax, and cannellini beans; toss to coat. If storing, cover and refrigerate up to 1 day; bring to room temperature before serving.
