SNOW PEAS WITH MINT AND PINE NUTS
As with other nuts, you may find a variety of pine nuts available in your local grocery store. Toasted, salted, dry-roasted, raw, and even seasoned varieties are available in markets today. Be sure to look for pine nuts that are raw or dry-roasted, which means they've been roasted without any added oils or fats. Though I normally prefer dry-roasted, here they'll toast in the pan, which will give the dish great flavor. To trim peas, just break off the stem end and strip the string away from the edge. It's a great project for the kids.

Steps:
- Place a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, peas, pine nuts, and garlic. Cook them, stirring occasionally, until the snow peas are crisp-tender, 2 to 3 minutes (do not overcook them or they will get mushy). Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the sesame oil and mint. Season with salt. Serve immediately.
