  1. Step 1

    Trim off the ends of the beans. Drop them into boiling salted water to cover, and cook until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Do not overcook. Drain and let cool.

    Place the mustard, garlic and vinegar in a salad bowl. Gradually add the oil while stirring with a wire whisk. Add salt, pepper, cumin, and basil or chives. Stir and blend. Add the green beans, tomatoes and red onion. Toss and serve.
