1 small garlic clove, minced
1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
2 1/2 lb Romano (flat) beans, trimmed

    Whisk together vinegar, mustard, thyme, garlic, and 1/2 tsp each of kosher salt and pepper, then whisk in oil in a slow stream until well-blended.

    Step 2

    Cook beans in a large pot of well-salted boiling water until tender, 7 to 10 minutes. Drain, then toss with dressing and season with salt and pepper. Serve warm or at room temperature.

  • Roasting the beans in the oven 375 or on the grill,after trimming, flat on a baking sheet, dressed with a little oil, will take this recipe ( the beans, too!) to a new level.
