Mediterranean beans salad

Mediterranean green bean salad is one of my favorite side dishes right now. The other day I was back at my favorite greengrocer and I saw these wonderful green beans. I quickly asked myself the question, what should I do with it? Of course, you can make classic steamed green beans, but that’s kind of boring. Then I had the idea to make a delicious bean salad out of it. Mediterranean flavored with mushrooms, peppers and pickled in a delicious broth. Well, do you feel like it? Then let’s get started together.

Green beans are very healthy. They are low in calories, but still rich in valuable fiber, magnesium, iron, potassium, calcium, vitamins C and B, and zinc. Especially for vegans, beans provide high-quality, plant-based protein. The season for green beans in Germany is between May and October. Especially then it is worth buying fresh produce from your trusted organic greengrocer. I always pay special attention to organic quality, because that way I can be sure that the vegetables are hardly contaminated with harmful substances.

For the salad, I heat some water in a large pot salt it and cook the beans for about 10 – 15 minutes until they are soft but still firm to the bite. I add a little baking soda to the cooking water so that the beans retain their green color. Soda can be used really versatile in the kitchen and is especially helpful in our case. Once the beans are cooked, drain the cooking water and briefly rinse the beans with cold water. Then it’s on to the mushrooms. Sauté them in a little olive oil together with an onion and season with Italian herbs, salt, nutmeg and a little pepper. Once they are nice and soft, I take the heat off and set them aside. The last step is to assemble the salad. To do this, place the beans in a large salad bowl along with the mushrooms, peppers, smoked tofu, vegetable broth and vinegar. Stir once and place in the refrigerator. This is important so that the salad can really soak through.
