STRING BEAN ONION VINAIGRETTE
A reader is experiencing anxiety while
waiting her turn for the coronavirus
vaccine, but is also happy for friends
who are already being vaccinated.
How does she balance the competing
feelings? Read Miriam’s Advice Well online for her answer. From
dating to parenting, Miriam welcomes all questions. Email yours to
news@jewishexponent.com and put “Advice Well Question” in the
subject line.

Steamed string beans are a common standby preparation, but
are kind of boring. That’s why food columnist Keri White jazzed
up a bag of string beans with salted vinegared onions to make a
tasty side dish. Better yet, the preparation method would work on
many diff erent kinds of produce. Read Philacatessen, her online
blog, for the recipe. And check Philacatessen regularly for food
content not normally found in the printed edition.
