Fresh Bean and Tomato Salad with Creamy Caesar Vinaigrette

  1. For the vinaigrette: In a skillet over medium-low heat, toast the pine nuts, stirring occasionally, until golden and fragrant, 4 to 5 minutes.
  2. Remove from the heat and set aside.
  3. (Alternatively, place the pine nuts on a baking sheet and toast in a 350-degree oven until golden, 6 to 8 minutes.)
  4. In a blender, combine the mayonnaise, pecorino, toasted pine nuts, lemon juice, Dijon, anchovies, Worcestershire, cayenne and a pinch of salt and pepper.
  5. Blend until smooth.
  6. Set aside.
  7. For the salad: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  8. Blanch the beans until crisp-tender, 5 to 7 minutes.
  9. With a slotted spoon, remove the beans to a serving plate and add the sliced tomatoes and torn basil.
  10. Drizzle with the vinaigrette, and sprinkle with some pine nuts and the 2 tablespoons pecorino.
  11. Season with salt and pepper.
