Summer Orange Blossom Salad (Corn, Peas And Beans)
- 1 15-16 ounce can cannellini beans
- 1 cup cooked peas
- 1 cup cooked corn kernels
- 1/4 cup minced sun-dried tomatoes
- 1 large shallot
- 2 tablespoons minced pine nuts
- extra virgin olive oil
- zest of one lemon
- orange blossom water
- salt and fresh cracked pepper
- Rinse your cannellini beans well, drain and place in a large serving bowl.
- Add to the bowl your peas and corn (if recently cooked, let them cool before adding).
- Minced up your shallots, sun-dried tomatoes and pine nuts. Add them to the bowl too. Toss everything lightly and drizzle with EVOO.
- Zest the lemon right into the bowl.
- Squirt the lemon juice over, tasting after using 1/2 the lemon to see if it needs more - you want the right balance of acidity without being too tart. This is going to depend on the size and ripeness of your lemons.
- You don't need a lot of orange blossom water. Really, just a small splash or two. If you're hesitant, measure out two teaspoons first, toss everything and then taste, adding more a teaspoon at a time.
- Give everything a final toss, add salt and pepper to taste and keep chilled/covered until you're ready to eat it!
