Ingredients
Vegetables
- 1 pound green beans, trimmed
- 2 ears sweet corn, husks removed, kernels sliced off
Dressing
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- 2 tsp fresh dill, chopped (more to taste)
- 2 tsp fresh mint, chopped (more to taste)
- 1/4 tsp sea salt
Instructions
- Steam the Vegetables: Bring a few inches of water to a boil in a large pot. Place a steamer basket inside the pot, add the trimmed green beans and corn kernels into the basket, then cover with a lid. Steam over medium-high heat for 4 to 6 minutes until crisp-tender. Remove from heat and transfer the steamed vegetables to a serving plate.
- Prepare the Dressing: While the vegetables are steaming, whisk together the olive oil, apple cider vinegar, chopped dill, mint, and sea salt in a small bowl until well combined.
- Dress and Serve: Pour the dressing evenly over the warm steamed vegetables. Gently toss to coat everything thoroughly. Garnish with extra fresh dill and mint if desired, and sprinkle with flaky sea salt before serving.
Notes
- Trim the green beans before steaming for even cooking and better texture.
- Use fresh herbs for the best flavor, but dried herbs can be substituted in a pinch.
- Adjust seasoning by adding more salt or vinegar to taste after tossing.
- This dish can be served warm or at room temperature.
- For added crunch, sprinkle toasted nuts or seeds on top before serving.
