  1. For Dressing: Whisk first 5 ingredients in medium bowl. Gradually whisk in oil. Season to taste with salt and pepper. (Dressing can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature and rewhisk before using.)
  2. For Salad: Steam potatoes till tender. Cold; cut into quarters. Cook green beans in large pot of boiling salted water till crisp-tender, about 5 min. Drain. Transfer beans to bowl of ice water and cold. Drain. Cut beans in half. Combine green beans, potatoes, onion and basil in large bowl. Add in dressing; toss to coat. Season with salt and pepper.
