- 1 lb green beans, ends trimmed and cut on the bias into 1-1/2-inch lengths
- 1 lb yellow wax bean, ends trimmed and cut on the bias into 1-1/2-inch lengths
- 1 lb asparagus, ends trimmed and cut on the bias into 1-1/2-inch lengths
- 14 cup chives, thinly sliced fresh
- 3 tablespoons white wine vinegar
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- 1 teaspoon granulated sugar
- 12 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 13 cup olive oil
- Prepare an ice water bath by filling a large bowl halfway with ice and water; set aside.
- Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil over high heat.
- Add green beans to the pot and cook until just tender, about 2 to 3 minutes.
- Remove with a slotted spoon to the ice water bath and let cool, about 4 to 5 minutes.
- Remove beans from the ice water bath and spread out on a clean kitchen towel or a paper towel to dry.
- Repeat with wax beans and asparagus, adding more ice to the ice water bath in between batches.
- While the beans are drying, combine chives, vinegar, salt, sugar, and pepper in a large, nonreactive bowl.
- While whisking, add oil in a steady stream until completely incorporated.
- Add beans and asparagus to vinaigrette and toss gently to combine.
- Serve at room temperature or chilled.
