ENGLISH PEAS WITH MINT



English Peas with Mint image

Be sure to use fresh English peas, as they have a sweet, delicate flavor well worth the time-consuming effort of shelling them. If you're cooking with children, you can entrust them with the job. Their little fingers are ideal for this type of work

FRESH ENGLISH PEA SALAD

From The Kitchen restaurant in Boulder, CO in their appetizers section. There is a note that says as sping turns to summer and the peas get sweeter to substitute feta cheese for the pecorino. Yum yum! I love peas! This is an appetizer to be shared, although I think with some balsamic glazed chicken this would be an excellent dinner salad!

Time 40m

Yield 1 appetizer, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb fresh English pea (usually still in the pod)
1 bunch of fresh mint
1/2 bunch arugula
1/4 cup lemon juice
4 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper
1/4 lb pecorino cheese

Steps:

  • Remove peas from pods. Bring a pot of very salty water to boil. Add peas and boil for about 1 minute, just until color changes to a consistent bright green. Remove and cool in ice water or under running cold water. (The cold water stops the cooking and keeps the peas bright green.).
  • Wash and dry mint and arugula. In a bowl, combine peas with mint and arugula. Add juice of 1 lemon, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Shave half of the pecorino onto a cutting board and reserve. Shave remaining pecorino, chop, and add to salad; toss. Taste and adjust seasoning with more lemon juice or olive oil as desired.
  • 3. Serve immediately, topped with reserved shaved pecorino cheese.
