Recipe

  • 1 place potatoes in a large saucepan with 1 tablespoons salt and enough water to cover generously. bring to a boil and cook about 15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender but still firm in the center. drain potatoes, allow to cool a bit, then cut them in half and place in a large bowl.
  • 2 meanwhile, cook green beans in lightly salted boiling water for 5 minutes, until just tender. drain, add beans to the warm potatoes, then add herbs, garlic, capers, and lemon zest. combine oil and lemon juice and pour over the potato-bean mixture; toss to mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste. let stand for a few hours at room temperature so that the herbs will have time to flavor the vegetables. garnish with edible flowers if you like.
