Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt
3/4 pound sugar snap peas
1 bunch red radishes
1/2 bunch fresh chives
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the salad: Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Using a paring knife, trim the ends of the snap peas. Blanch the peas in the boiling water just until tender-crisp and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the peas from the pot and cool completely in ice water, about 1 minute. Drain the peas on a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
  • Using a chef's knife, trim the roots and stems off the radishes. Quarter about half and thinly slice the rest to create texture in the salad. Mince the chives.
  • In a large salad bowl, combine the peas, radishes, and minced chives.
  • For the vinaigrette: In a small glass jar or plastic container with a tight-fitting lid, combine the olive oil, vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Shake to combine.
  • Toss the vinaigrette with the salad and serve.

Provided by Shea Gallante

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/4 cup sugar snap peas, julienne
1 tablespoon black olive tapenade
1 teaspoon shallots, minced
1 teaspoon aged balsamic vinegar
1 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon parsley, chopped
1 pint red currants
1 green apple*
1/4 cup good-quality extra virgin olive oil
Salt and freshly ground white pepper to taste
4 ounces sashimi-quality bigeye tuna
Sea salt (Maldon, sel gris, or fleur de sel)
1/4 ounces white frisée
1/4 ounces purple micro radish (or other micro greens)

Steps:

  • Combine the ingredients for the snap pea salad. Allow the salad to marinate for about half an hour in the refrigerator.
  • Purée the currants through a fine sieve. Discard solids and reserve liquids.
  • Peel the apple and juice it in a juicer, or substitute fresh apple cider.
  • Combine the currant purée with the apple juice, and slowly whisk in the olive oil. When the oil is incorporated, season with salt, white pepper, and a few drops of porcini oil. (Use porcini oil sparingly, as too much will dominate the other flavors.) Cover and reserve in refrigerator.
  • Using a very sharp knife, slice the tuna against the grain into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Sprinkle with sea salt and freshly ground pepper. Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil.
  • To serve, lay the slices of fish over some of the pea salad and brush with the red apple vinaigrette. Garnish with the most delicate white leaves of frisée and a few sprigs of micro red radish.
  • *You can substitute 1/2 cup fresh apple cider plus 1 teaspoon lemon juice.
