• Make dressing. Peel the garlic and press it with the tines of a fork or through a garlic press. Place tablespoon of beans in a mixing bowl with garlic and mash to a puree.
• Add mustard and vinegar and season to taste with salt and pepper.
• Gradually add olive oil in a steady stream, whisking constantly, until dressing has reached the consistency of mayonnaise. Add parsley, mint and beans and toss. Correct seasoning and serve at room temperature.
