Steps:
- 1. Whisk together the sour cream, mayonnaise, apple cider vinegar, salt and pepper.
- 2. Add thawed peas, red onion, cheddar cheese and bacon; stirring gently to combine. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Tips:
- Fresh peas are key: Use fresh, shelled peas for the best flavor and texture. If fresh peas are unavailable, frozen peas can be used, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
- Don't overcook the peas: Peas should be cooked just until tender-crisp. Overcooked peas will lose their flavor and texture.
- Use a variety of vegetables: In addition to peas, this salad can be made with a variety of other vegetables, such as carrots, celery, radishes, and cucumbers.
- Choose a creamy dressing: A creamy dressing is essential for this salad. Mayonnaise-based dressings are a classic choice, but Greek yogurt or sour cream can also be used.
- Add some herbs: Herbs, such as dill, parsley, or chives, can add a fresh, flavorful touch to this salad.
- Serve immediately or chill: This salad can be served immediately after it is made, or it can be chilled for later. Chilling the salad will allow the flavors to meld together.
