Peas

how to cook peas

Look for:
If fresh, look for firm, vibrant green pods without blotches and with the stem end still attached.

Prep: If fresh, zip open the hull, using the stem end as a tab. If frozen, do not defrost before using.

Sauté: Heat 2 teaspoons butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add peas; cook, stirring often, until bright green, about 3 minutes.

Steam:
Place peas in a steamer basket over 1 inch of water in a large pot set over high heat. Cover and steam for 2 minutes.
