INSTRUCTIONS
FOR DRESSING
In a large saucepan combine beans with water to cover by 2 inches and add
salt, bay leaves, and coriander seeds. Simmer beans, uncovered, stirring
occasionally and adding more hot water if necessary to keep beans covered,
1 to 1 1/4 hours, or until beans are just tender but not mushy.
Make dressing while beans are cooking:
Mince garlic fine and in a large bowl stir together well with lemon juice
and oil.
In a colander drain beans, discarding bay leaves, and add to dressing. Toss
salad and season with salt and pepper. Cool salad and stir in onion and
herbs. Salad may be made 1 day ahead and chilled, covered.
Serve salad at room temperature, thinning if necessary with 1 to 2
tablespoons water.
Makes about five cups.
