Chili Crisp Snap Pea Salad Instructions
  1. Begin by bringing a pot of salted water to a boil. Once boiling, add frozen edamame and blanch for 3 minutes until they turn vibrant green.
  2. Wash the sugar snap peas thoroughly and slice them on a bias. In a large mixing bowl, combine the snap peas, cooled edamame, chopped cilantro, and sliced scallions. Toss gently.
  3. In a small saucepan, heat the sesame oil over medium heat. Once hot, mix in toasted sesame seeds, honey, grated ginger, and chili crisp.
  4. Pour the warm dressing over the salad mixture and toss well. Squeeze in fresh lemon juice and adjust kosher salt to taste.
  5. Serve the Chili Crisp Snap Pea Salad immediately for maximum crunch and vibrancy.
