- Drain and then sprinkle with vinegar and a little salt& pepper to taste; set aside to cool slightly.
- Snap tough string ends off beans, then place beans into a pot with 1 cup water, cover, and let steam for about 3 minutes.
- Drain in a colander and run under cold water to help cool beans off quickly.
- Set colander into a bowl of ice water to cover beans and let sit 2 minutes to chill quickly.
- Drain beans and pat dry, then cut each bean in half.
- Stir together the dressing ingredients in a large bowl.
- Add potatoes, beans, egg, bacon, and green onions, tossing gently.
- Cover and chill well before serving.
