Servings: persons

1 pinch salt, to taste
6 dried apricots (or fresh, sweet ones)
1/2 cup fino sherry (or whatever sherry you can find; a sweet one will work, too)
1/3 cup small green grapes
1/3 Granny Smith apple, skin on
1 1/8-inch-thick slice Serrano ham or prosciutto (about 1.5 ounces)
1 tablespoon sliced chives
3/4 pound haricots verts or thin green beans, topped but not tailed
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar, more to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil

1
Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a boil. Meanwhile, place the apricots in a bowl and pour over the sherry and 1/2 cup boiling water (yes, you can take it from the pot of boiling water!). Let the apricots sit and plump while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
2
Thinly slice the grapes. Cut the apple into 1/8-inch cubes. Do the same with the Serrano ham. Drain the apricots, and cut each of them into 6 pieces.
3
Add the haricots verts to the boiling water and cook until tender but still crisp in the center, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain (do not run under cold water) and transfer to a large bowl - or just add back to the empty and still-warm pot. Sprinkle in the apricots, grapes, apple, ham, chives, 1 tablespoon vinegar, and the olive oil. Toss well using your hands or two large spoons. Taste and add more vinegar and salt as needed. Serve warm or at room temperature.
