-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pound fresh green beans -- trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces
10 ounces frozen shelled edamame -- (1 bag)
3 Tablespoons canola oil
3 Tablespoons rice vinegar
1/4 cup 100%-fruit apricot preserves
1 Tablespoon sugar
1 teaspoon peeled and grated fresh ginger

2 scallions -- (white and green parts), thinly sliced
Salt to taste
Put the green beans and frozen edamame in a steamer basket over several
inches of boiling water and steam them for 4 minutes. Drain well, then
transfer the beans to a large bowl and put them in the refrigerator to
cool for 15 minutes or longer.
In a small bowl, whisk together the oil, vinegar, apricot preserves, sugar
and ginger.
Add the black beans and scallions to the green beans and edamame, drizzle
with the dressing, and toss to coat. Season with salt, and serve at room
temperature or chilled. This salad will keep in the refrigerator in an
airtight container for about 3 days.

This recipe takes the typical dish to another level. Making the most of
the season's bounty of produce, it calls for steaming fresh green beans
until just crisp-tender, rather than using the limper canned version. It
also boasts an exciting Asian flair with protein-rich edamame as one of
the beans in the trio, and a sweet-tart dressing that gets its primary
sweetness from apricot all-fruit preserves instead of the refined sugar in
the usual recipe.
The result is a dish that is familiar and just as versatile as the
classic, yet with a refreshing new perspective. It is sure to become your
new summer favorite.
