Fresh English Pea Salad image

From The Kitchen restaurant in Boulder, CO in their appetizers section. There is a note that says as sping turns to summer and the peas get sweeter to substitute feta cheese for the pecorino. Yum yum! I love peas! This is an appetizer to be shared, although I think with some balsamic glazed chicken this would be an excellent dinner salad!

Time 40m

Yield 1 appetizer, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 lb fresh English pea (usually still in the pod)
1 bunch of fresh mint
1/2 bunch arugula
1/4 cup lemon juice
4 tablespoons olive oil
salt and pepper
1/4 lb pecorino cheese

Steps:

  • Remove peas from pods. Bring a pot of very salty water to boil. Add peas and boil for about 1 minute, just until color changes to a consistent bright green. Remove and cool in ice water or under running cold water. (The cold water stops the cooking and keeps the peas bright green.).
  • Wash and dry mint and arugula. In a bowl, combine peas with mint and arugula. Add juice of 1 lemon, olive oil, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Shave half of the pecorino onto a cutting board and reserve. Shave remaining pecorino, chop, and add to salad; toss. Taste and adjust seasoning with more lemon juice or olive oil as desired.
  • 3. Serve immediately, topped with reserved shaved pecorino cheese.
