Sesame Snap Peas

In last week's CSA box we received a number of delicious things. I decided to swap the kale for grapes because they were the red flame grapes, my favorite! But I am sure I will get kale again, so I am keeping the recipes now that I know how to get around the texture issue we all had.

One thing we received that we tried a delicious recipe for was sugar snap peas.

The recipe is:

Sesame Snap Peas

1lb sugar snap peas
1 tbsp dark sesame oil
1 tbsp black sesame seeds or toasted sesame seeds
1 tbsp honey
salt

Bring 4 cups of salted water to a boil. Drop the peas into the boiling water for about a minute and then plunge them into ice water to chill them. While they are still crisp and cool remove them to a colander to dry. Place peas in a bowl, toss with sesame oil, sprinkle with seeds and lightly drizzle with honey. Salt to taste. Serve immediately.

These were so delicious! The only problem we had was not enough peas....we ran out too soon.

Oh, this looks good. If I can get enough peas out of our garden, I think my husband will love this!
