SPICY WOK-CHARRED SNOW PEAS



Spicy Wok-Charred Snow Peas image

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.

Time 15m

1/2 teaspoon grated ginger
1/2 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
3 tablespoons crushed roasted peanuts
2 tablespoons roughly chopped cilantro

TWISTED SNOW PEA TOSS



Twisted Snow Pea Toss image

Found this recipe on one of those grocery recipe cards from the produce section. This is a very different twist on an Asian dish in my opinion by using the black beans with the snow peas and edamame (baby soybeans). I could not find seasoned rice vinegar so I used plain rice vinegar...maybe I don't understand what they are calling for with that ingredient.
