Green Bananas In Balsamic-Olive Vinaigrette

appetizers, salads, summer, spring, side dish
puerto rican

2 cups milk
Salt
4 pounds green bananas; halved crosswise
2/3 cup balsamic vinegar
Ground black pepper
1 2/3 cups olive oil
1 cup Kalamata olives, pitted; quartered
4 bay leaves

TO PREPARE: Bring milk and 2 quarts water to boil in a soup kettle. Add 1 tablespoon salt and bananas. Bring to boil and simmer until bananas are cooked but still firm, 20 to 25 minutes. Drain, peel, and cut bananas, crosswise, into 1/2-inch thick slices. Mix vinegar and 1 tablespoon pepper in a large nonreactive bowl. Whisk in oil in a slow, steady stream. Stir in olives, bay leaves, and banana slices. Let stand at room temperature at least 1 hour, then serve. (Can be refrigerated overnight.) NOTES : A tropical salad with bananas boiled in milk and dressed with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and black olives. An intriguing tropical accompaniment for grilled chicken, fish, or meat. Sweet balsamic vinegar from Italy and Kalamata olives from Greece add a cross-cultural dimension to this version of escabeche - pickled green bananas. 0 0 2142 0 0 0 26531 0
