Best Snap Pea Pasta Salad With Lemon Vinaigrette Recipes
SNAP PEA SALAD
When snap peas are in season, we can't resist making this crunchy salad. I usually serve it cold, but it's also good warm, with the peas straight from the pot. -Jean Ecos, Hartland, Wisconsin

SNAP PEA PASTA SALAD WITH LEMON VINAIGRETTE
Steps:
- For the Vinaigrette: Combine the lemon juice, mustard, shallot, honey, and zest in a medium bowl and set aside for 5 to 10 minutes to let the shallot's flavor mellow. Whisk in the oil. Stir in the herbs and season with salt and pepper to taste. The vinaigrette can be made up to a day ahead and stored, covered, in the refrigerator. For the Salad: Put 4 to 6 quarts of salted water in a large pot and set it over high heat. Once the salt has dissolved, taste the water-it should taste like sea water. If it doesn't, add more salt. Bring the water to a boil and add the pasta. Cook the pasta according to the package instructions until just al dente. Drain the pasta thoroughly by shaking it in a colander, then immediately pour it out onto a rimmed baking sheet to cool. Toss the pasta with the olive oil to prevent sticking. Transfer the cooled pasta to a large serving bowl. Add the snaps, bell peppers, corn, and carrots to the pasta and toss. Add the goat cheese, olives and parsley, plus just enough of the vinaigrette to moisten the pasta. Toss again. Let the salad rest for 10 to 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and then taste the salad again. If necessary, add a little more olives and parsley, vinaigrette or salt and pepper. Serve as soon as possible.
