Fresh Pea Salad
We were excited to find fresh peas at Pepper Place farmers market this weekend but when we got home with them we were unsure what to do with them. When I searched pea salad on Pinterest all that really came up was peas covered in mayonnaise and that’s not what I was looking for so we just put this together with what we had on hand.
For this salad we used:
- fresh peas
- spicy lettuce mix
- radishes
- juice of one lemon
- fresh mint
- fresh basil
- olive oil
- salt and peppper
We blanched the peas by cooking in boiling water for just one minute and then rinsed in cold water. The dressing for the salad was simply a little olive oil, lemon juice, chopped mint and basil from the garden, and a dash of salt and pepper.
