A good-quality extra-virgin olive oil makes all the difference here. Elena uses Barbera Frantoia XV, from Sicily, which, when tossed with the warm beans, bursts with a gentle grassy flavor. Ingredients:
1 lb green beans, trimmed |
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil |
coarse gray sea salt to taste |
Directions:
1. Cook beans in a 6-quart pot of boiling salted water , uncovered, until just tender, 4 to 6 minutes. Drain in a colander, then transfer to a large bowl and toss with oil, sea salt, and pepper to taste.
