SPICY WOK-CHARRED SNOW PEAS
High-heat stir-fries are ideal for peas - either snow peas or the sugar snap variety. Assertive seasoning and the slight charring from the wok complement the peas' sweetness wonderfully. The method works well for other spring vegetables, too, like asparagus or baby bok choy clusters. Use a wide cast -iron pan if you don't have a wok. Take care to avoid overcooking; the peas should be a vibrant green color and firm to the bite.

STIR-FRIED BEEF AND SUGAR SNAP PEAS
Here's a stir-fry far better than most take-out Chinese, and you can make it with any lean cut of meat - flank steak, London broil, tenderloin, sirloin or skirt steak - so long as it is cut thin against the grain. Most takeout joints use snow peas, but sugar snaps are juicier and more succulent, and just as crunchy. (Their downside is that they are slightly more work: they need to be thinly sliced.) As for the sauce, it's simple: thick dark soy sauce (tamari works well), sesame oil, chicken broth and Madeira.
