Braised Endives with Haricots VertsMikkel Vang

A mix of pleasantly bitter and crisp-tender vegetables perfectly complements the Duck with Walnut Sherry Vinaigrette . Some of the nutty, sweet vinaigrette will inevitably end up on the vegetables, enhancing their flavor.

Cooks' note:

Beans can be cooked 1 day ahead and chilled in a sealed plastic bag lined with dampened paper towels.
