Notes
- I prefer to let the salad sit for at least 8 hours before serving to let the flavors develop.
- Try different beans for a different flavor profile, cannellini or garbanzo work great.
- To mellow out the flavor of the onion, soak cut pieces in ice water for 10 minutes before adding to the salad.
