How To Make three bean salad

  • Step 1
    Bring a large pot of water to boil. Add the green beans cooking for 2-3 minutes. Then plunge the green beans into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain them well and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Step 2
    Whisk the vinegar and sugar together. Slowly drizzle in the olive oil while whisking. Season with kosher salt and fresh ground black pepper to taste.
  • Step 3
    In a large bowl combine the green beans, garbanzo beans, kidney beans, red onions, and celery. Pour the dressing and toss to coat. Cover and chill for 2-3 hours.
  • Step 4
    Add the fresh parsley and rosemary and toss to coat. For best results serve the dish shortly after adding the fresh herbs.
