Modern Broad Bean Salad

Ingredients

• 500 grams Fresh Broad Beans (About 2 cups shelled)
• 1 clove Garlic Clove (For rubbing the bowl)
• 2 tablespoons Fresh Parsley (Chopped)
• 3 tablespoons Extra Virgin Olive Oil
• 0.5 teaspoon Salt (Or to taste)
• 0.25 teaspoon Black Pepper (Freshly ground, or to taste)
• 1 tablespoon Red Wine Vinegar (Or to taste)

Instructions

1. 1Bring a pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broad beans and cook for 5-7 minutes, or until tender. Drain the beans and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process.
2. 2Once the beans are cool enough to handle, gently squeeze each bean to pop it out of its outer skin. Discard the skins, keeping only the bright green inner bean.
3. 3Rub the inside of a salad bowl with the cut side of the garlic clove. This will impart a subtle garlic flavor to the salad.
4. 4In the garlic-rubbed bowl, combine the peeled broad beans, chopped parsley, olive oil, salt, and pepper. Mix well to combine. Finally, add the red wine vinegar and mix gently.
5. 5Serve the broad bean salad immediately or chill for later. Taste and adjust seasonings as needed before serving.
