Ingredients
- 300 grams sugar snap peas
- 6 pieces radishes
- 10 grams fresh mint leaves
- 10 grams fresh parsley
- 1 piece lemon
- 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
- 1 teaspoon honey
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Wash and trim the sugar snap peas by snapping off the stem end and removing any attached string, if needed.
Step 2
Blanch the sugar snap peas: Bring a pot of water to a boil and prepare a bowl of ice water. Add the peas to the boiling water and cook for 1 minute, then transfer them to the ice water to cool immediately. Drain and set aside.
Step 3
Thinly slice the radishes using a sharp knife or mandoline for uniformity.
Step 4
Chop the fresh mint leaves and parsley finely and set them aside.
Step 5
Prepare the dressing: Zest and juice the lemon into a small bowl. Add the extra-virgin olive oil, honey, salt, and black pepper. Whisk thoroughly to combine.
Step 6
In a large salad bowl, combine the blanched sugar snap peas, sliced radishes, chopped mint, and parsley.
Step 7
Pour the lemon dressing over the salad and toss gently to coat all the ingredients evenly.
Step 8
Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt or pepper, if needed.
Step 9
Serve immediately or refrigerate for up to 2 hours before serving for a chilled version.
