Tendril is such a cute word, isn't it? You should see them... they're even cuter! They're actually the young leaves and shoots of snow pea plants. Serve this with salmon or other fish and a dill-cucumber sauce. Ingredients:
1/4 cup olive oil |
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice |
1 teaspoon sugar |
2 cups shelled fresh peas (do not thaw frozen peas) or 1 (10 ounce) package frozen baby peas (do not thaw frozen peas) |
8 ounces pea tendrils, cut into 4-inch lengths |
salt and pepper |
Directions:
1. Whisk oil, lemon juice and sugar in small bowl to blend; set dressing aside. 2. Bring large pot of salted water to boil. 3. Add fresh or frozen peas and cook 3 minutes. 4. Add pea tendrils; cook 2 minute. Drain well. 5. Return vegetables to pot; add oil-lemon dressing and toss to coat. 6. Season with salt and pepper. |
