Preparation

Step 1

1. Cook the green beans in a large pot of boiling salted water just until they are crisp-tender and bright green, about 2 minutes. Using a meshed spoon, transfer the green beans to a large bowl of ice water and let cool completely. Drain well and transfer the green beans to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and pat dry to remove any excess moisture.

To make the dressing and serve:
2. In a large bowl, whisk the oil, shallots, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add the green beans and toss to coat.
3. Tear the cheese into large pieces and scatter them over the green beans. Add the mint and toss again. Mound the mixture on a platter. Drizzle with the vinegar and serve.
