Sweet and Blanched Sugar Snap Peas

By Kathy Smith


Below is a effortless sugar snap peas recipe that feeds four to 6 people as one side dish.

I really like eating sugar snap peas. I love them raw for a quick munchie or along with a sandwich at lunch time. If I am rounding up ingredients for chicken noodle, turkey noodle, beef pot roast, or vegetable soup, I simply pour them in the stew pot without chopping them up. Their small size makes certain that I don't have to devote time over slicing them up for stews nevertheless these are thick enough for being simmered for a long time in the pot without shredding to splinters. Listed below is a recipe for sugar snap peas to be a side dish.

Sugar Snap Peas Ingredients:
1 lb or 16 oz . of peeled, raw sugar snap peas (if you utilize homegrown peas from the garden, then you'll need eight or ten peas in this recipe)

3 tblsp white sugar

1 tblsp unsalted butter

Pinch of salt

Water to cover

Assemble the peas, sugar, butter and salt inside a medium size pot and pour in water until it merely barely covers the tops of peas. Bring water to a boil and then reduce heat to medium. Let the water to evaporate as peas boil and just pour in a tiny amount of water when necessary to stop the peas from carmelizing to the pot. Now and again stir the peas to guarantee thorough cooking. Carry on and cook the peas at a gentle boil for eight or ten mins or until all the sugar snap peas soft when pierced with a knife. Drain all of the water and serve either warm or room temperature.

It is easy to adjust this sugar snap peas recipe to own preferences by taking away sugar or salt. Should you prefer a sweeter carrot recipe, add another tablespoon of white sugar. Be sure to adjust the sugar to water proportions to make sure that there is ample water to dissolve the extra sugar.

If excessive sugar is added to the peas and the water inside the boiling pot isn't increased, then the peas may become sticky sweet and there is a risk for the sugar to burn inside the boiling pan. Dive into this sugar snap peas recipe!
