Based on a recipe from Curtis Stone found on Taste, this salad is delicious warm or cold, and the fresh cherry vinaigrette is also good on beets or any tossed salads. The green beans and vinaigrette can be prepared 1 day ahead.
|
- In a large heavy pot of boiling salted water, cook the green beans for about 5 minutes, or until just tender. Drain and cool to room temperature.
- In a food processor, pulse the cherries, lemon juice, and vinegar until the cherries are finely chopped. Transfer to a medium bowl and stir in the parsley, shallots, and oil. Set aside.
- In a heavy medium saucepan over medium-high heat, cook the butter, stirring often, for about 5 minutes, or until golden brown. Stir the hot browned butter into the cherry mixture. Season the vinaigrette to taste with salt and pepper.
- In a large bowl, toss the green beans with half of the warm vinaigrette to coat. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the almonds and serve immediately.

Our beans aren't anywhere near ready yet, in fact they've only just started growing, but I'd love to try this on beetroot. I just need to find myself a cherry pitter.
A delicious way to prepare green beans. I love the cherry vinaigrette.
With cherry? Brilliant! ^.^
I like that you simply blanch the green beans to cook it slightly. And the cherry vinaigrette sounds so special, with the browned butter.
I picked beans this past weekend, and will have a lot coming in this season. I will be picking up some cherries so I can try this!
Love the idea…it makes for a beautiful salad.
Honestly, cherries have got to be one of the most versatile thing EVER. they are so summery and they can be adapted to sweet and savoury dished. Good idea!
What a great way to use fresh cherries, I bet the flavours are bursting all over the place :D
This is a unique combination but one I'd like to try! Thanks!
How interesting! Nice color combo. And sounds great!
this is like art on the plate and on the table! beatiful!
What an delicious looking and sounding side dish!
simply lovely photography ^^
Delighted to find such a gorgeous salad, Angie. Love the cherry dressing and will be trying it on lots of dishes.
What a fabulous, new way to top green beans. Plus both are perfectly in season right now. YUM, Angie!
Looks so colorful and delicious..
