Cooking Tip from LA COCINA GOYA: Your most Flavorful Bean Salad
To help the flavor of the dressing make its way inside the bean (instead of just flavoring the surface), heat the dressing until warm before mixing with the beans
(a 1 minute zap in the microwave will do the trick). Then, mix and refrigerate until cold.
