Such a salad with green beans and ham is good when the body wants something fresh and light, and not winter, fatty and heavy from canned food. Although there is also canned food in this recipe (corn). And my beans are frozen. But all the same, the overall taste (and the color) is obtained - summer and fresh meat. That in February, which is now in the yard, you must agree, is very positive for the mood!

The only irreplaceable seasoning for this salad is, in my opinion, salt. You can easily make it without oil, and without ground pepper, and without lemon juice, and without herbs. The basic ingredients have enough of their own flavor!

We put 1 liter of water to boil. When the liquid has boiled, add green beans to it and let it boil again. Salt, perhaps add a pinch of soda. Cook for 2-3 minutes.

While our water is boiling there and the beans are boiling, we just have time to cut the rest of the ingredients. Pepper - in strips, commensurate with the dimensions of green beans.

I cut the ham into cubes with a side of about 1 cm.

If herbs are used, chop them finely.

Drain the hot water from the beans, and cool it cold as best as possible. This keeps the green bean pods firmer and greener.

For corn, drain the water from the jar, combine all the ingredients of the salad, season and mix them.

The salad with green beans and ham is ready. Enjoy your meal!

Important additions to the recipe

Add a pinch of baking soda when boiling the beans to improve the digestibility of the beans. If you express this thought in less scientific language, gas formation will be less if your body is inclined to such a reaction to this product.
