Snap Pea Salad with Whipped Ricotta Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by Chez_Alexander

Number Of Ingredients 11

8 ounce sugar snap peas
2/3 cup ricotta cheese
1 teaspoon lemon zest, grated and divided
1/2 cup pea tendrils or shoots
1/4 cup sliced fresh chives
2 tablespoons fresh mint, torn
2 tablespoons fresh dill, coarsely chopped
2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Bring a medium saucepan of water to a boil over high. Add peas and cook just until bright green and barely tender, about 1 minute. Immediately transfer peas to a bowl of ice water; let stand 5 minutes. Drain well. Thinly slice lengthwise. Process ricotta and 1/2 teaspoon lemon rind in a food processor until smooth and creamy, about 15 seconds. Spread mixture on a serving platter. Toss together sliced snap peas, pea tendrils, chives, mint, dill, and lemon juice in a large bowl. Arrange on top of ricotta mixture. Drizzle with oil, and sprinkle with salt, pepper, and remaining 1/2 teaspoon lemon rind.
