EASY PEASIES
Steps:
- Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the scallion whites and cook until wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in the wasabi paste, then add the peas and vegetable stock. Bring to a simmer, then cover and cook until the peas are heated through and bright green but still saucy, about 4 minutes. Uncover, then season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir in the lime zest, cilantro and scallion greens. Spoon into a serving bowl and sprinkle with the wasabi peas.

Steps:
- Place 1 1/2 cups wasabi peas in the bowl of a food processor fitted with the metal blade. Process until a coarse powder forms; transfer to a large plate.
- Slice the goat cheese log into six 1-inch-thick disks. Pour 1/2 cup olive oil on a small plate. Place the disks, one at a time, in the oil, turning to completely coat. Dredge in wasabi powder, turning to coat all sides, and shake off excess. Transfer to a baking sheet; cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate at least 1 hour.
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Prepare an ice bath, and set aside. In a small bowl, whisk together wasabi paste and vinegar. Whisk in mayonnaise, sugar, and remaining 1/4 cup oil until mixture is smooth. Season with salt; set aside.
- Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil, and generously add salt. Add sugar snap and snow peas; blanch until they are tender and bright green, about 2 minutes. Drain in a colander; transfer peas to the ice bath to stop cooking and preserve their color. Drain; pat dry with paper towels.
- Remove coated goat cheese disks from refrigerator. Place in oven; bake until disks are soft and hot in the center, about 7 minutes. Remove from oven.
- Combine blanched peas, pea shoots, and remaining 1/2 cup wasabi peas in a large bowl. Season with salt, and drizzle with wasabi-paste dressing. Toss well to lightly coat, and divide among six salad plates. Place one goat cheese disk on each plate, and serve immediately.
