Preparation:

Using a mandoline or knife, julienne zucchini (small matchstick sized pieces). Halve green beans lengthwise and again horizontally—zucchini and green beans should be about the same size. Blanch vegetables, drain, and transfer to bowl.

Add dill, scallions, and mushrooms. Toss with vinegar and oil, and season with salt and pepper. Refrigerate for at least one hour before serving.
