Ingredients
- 8 oz. sugar snap peas raw
- ½ tsp. salt
- ¼ tsp. butter or olive oil
Instructions
- Rinse and set aside raw snap peas.
- Fill a medium saucepan with enough water to fully cover peas. Add 1/2 teaspoon of salt and cover.Bring the pot to full boil.
- Remove lid and add the snap peas to the boiling water.Cook for about 60-70 seconds. Taste test. Peas should still be crunchy, with only a tiny bit more "give" than when they were raw. The peas will continue to soften, so err on the side of a more firm pod.
- Turn off heat and drain pea pods in a colander.Once drained, empty the pea pods into a serving dish.
- Add a small bit of butter or olive oil (1/4 tsp.) and mix to distribute.Serve delicious, stringless, snap peas!
