PREPARATION

  1. Boil the potatoes in salted water until tender, about 10-15 minutes. Drain and let cool, then cut into halves or quarters.

  2. Blanch the green beans in boiling water for 3-4 minutes until tender-crisp, then transfer to an ice bath to cool. Drain well.

  3. Boil the eggs for about 9 minutes, then transfer to an ice bath. Once cooled, peel and cut into quarters.

  4. In a small bowl, whisk together olive oil, red wine vinegar, Dijon mustard, garlic, salt, and pepper to make the dressing.
