INSTRUCTIONS
Prepare the filberts: Place the nuts on a baking sheet and roast them in a
375 degree oven for about 15 minutes or until they are light brown. Allow
to cool. Remove the husk by simply placing a few nuts in your hands and
rubbing your hands together. The husk will come off and you can blow away
the unwanted coating. Chop the nuts very coarse. Prepare the dressing:
Coddle the raw egg by letting it stand in 2 cups very hot tap water for 15
minutes. Mix all other ingredients for the dressing with the coddled egg
and salt and pepper to taste. I prefer to use a food blender for this. Thaw
the beans and drain them well. Place the beans, sliced white onion and the
green onions in a large salad bowl. Toss with the dressing. Top with the
filberts.
Comments: I whipped this one up one day when I came into a free bag of
filberts. Actually, these nuts are not at all expensive if you can find
some source for them in bulk. Try food co-ops and health-food stores.
