Final Notes for the Cold Green Bean Salad with Mayonnaise
➡️ I like appetizers of all kinds, so I make lots of appetizer recipes all the time. A good part of them is creamy appetizers featuring mayonnaise, sour cream, or yogurt. One of the very tasty cold appetizers that I bring to your attention on this page is the mushroom and green bean salad with mayonnaise, which is actually a salad appetizer.
➡️ The main ingredients of this appetizer are string beans and mushrooms. Of course, the salad can be prepared with wax yellow beans exactly in the same way. You can use both canned and fresh green beans, on your desire. The taste of the salad is pretty much the same, with a plus of vitamins for the fresh version, of course. However, the fresh carrots give enough freshness and healthiness to the salad, so using frozen string beans is a good choice when you want to save time and spend less time in the kitchen.
➡️ I like garlic flavor very much, so I use a lot of garlic in this salad appetizer. Nevertheless, you can use garlic to your taste, but I recommend a minimum of 2-3 garlic cloves to enjoy a spicy appetizer.
➡️ As for the mustard, you can use both sweet and spicy versions, as you like. Personally, I like to use spicy mustard that I combine with a bit of sugar to confer a spicy-sweet taste to the appetizer salad.
➡️ A very important thing that I underline is to drain the water VERY WELL from both string beans and mushrooms. Basically, you have to remove water completely from vegetables. If you don’t do so, your salad dressing will have a runny texture and an unpleasant taste.
➡️ Finally, you can replace the dill with other fresh aromatic plants such as parsley or coriander if you like those flavors more than dill.
