Snappy Beans And Peas With Pecorino
- 1 cup grated pecorino or Parmesan cheese (about 1 1/2 oz.)
- 1/2 cup olive oil
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
- 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
- Table salt and black pepper to taste
- 1/2 pound haricots verts (thin green beans), trimmed and cut into thirds
- 6 cups water, divided
- 1/2 pound fresh yellow wax beans, trimmed
- 1/2 pound sugar snap peas, trimmed
- 2 cups thinly sliced radicchio
- 2/3 cup roasted walnut halves
- 1/2 cup frozen green peas, thawed
- 1 large shallot, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup thinly sliced chives
- Table salt and pepper to taste
- Process pecorino or Parmesan cheese, olive oil, lemon juice, garlic, anchovy paste, and Dijon mustard in a blender until smooth; add table salt and black pepper to taste. Place haricots verts and 2 cups water in a microwave-safe bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap, folding back a small edge to allow steam to escape. Microwave at HIGH 2 to 3 minutes or until crisp-tender; plunge into ice water. Drain; pat dry. Repeat with yellow wax beans and sugar snap peas. Combine beans, sugar snaps, radicchio, walnut halves, green peas, shallot, and chives. Chill up to 1 hour. Add desired amount of olive oil mixture to bean mixture; toss to coat. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste before serving.
