SUGAR SNAP PEAS WITH PINE NUTS AND GARLIC



Sugar Snap Peas With Pine Nuts and Garlic image

Recently, my area experienced a blizzard that knocked out power for almost a full day. While I had my gas stove for cooking, I didn't have access to the internet to search for recipes. I had to resort to sifting through my cookbooks. I found this method for preparing sugar snap peas in the Perfect Vegetable cookbook by Cook's Illustrated. The veggies are crisp and bright with the depth and earthiness of the pine nuts and garlic. Great side dish.

  • Use a large skillet or wok: This will help to ensure that the peas cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: If you overcrowd the pan, the peas will steam instead of sautéing.
  • Cook the peas over high heat: This will help to preserve their鮮豔的綠色and crisp texture.
  • Add the garlic and pine nuts towards the end of cooking: This will prevent them from burning.
  • Season the peas with salt and pepper to taste: You can also add a squeeze of lemon juice or a drizzle of olive oil.
