Best Steamed Sugar Snap Peas With Wasabi Butter Recipes

5-MINUTE ASIAN SUGAR SNAP PEAS

Steps:

• Toss hot, cooked sugar snap peas with soy sauce and sesame oil. (If using steam-in-bag peas, be sure to drain off any water that may be in the cooking bag, so it doesn't dilute your sauce mixture).
• Add Pepper Relish (or jelly / chili garlic paste substitution) to taste. We find that 2 teaspoons is a good starting amount but we often add more - you may want more or less depending on how spicy your batch of Pepper Relish turned out, and on how spicy you like your food.
• Once you're done adding Pepper Relish (tasting and possibly adding a bit more), and adjusting the other flavors, add a pinch of salt, only if needed.
• Garnish with black sesame seeds, if desired. They don't add much flavor, but they look really pretty.
• When serving, be sure to scoop all the way to the bottom of the serving bowl to get some of the flavorful sauce along with each serving of peas.

SUGAR SNAP PEAS WITH SESAME

Steps:

• Pick through the sugar snap peas to remove any that aren't perfect. Remove and discard the stem end and the string from each pod. Toss the snap peas in a bowl with sesame oil, sesame seeds, and kosher salt, to taste. Serve at room temperature.
