STIR-FRIED SHRIMP WITH SNOW PEAS AND GINGER
In 2005, Julia Moskin wrote an excellent article about woks, the best sort for American kitchens (a 14-inch heavy-gauge carbon-steel wok with a flat bottom) and how to season it. This recipe, adapted from Grace Young's book, "The Breath of a Wok," ran alongside it. It is simple, fresh and fast. It cooks in under 5 minutes, so start your pot of rice as you clean the shrimp and chop the ginger, garlic and scallions.

Steps:
- In a large bowl combine 2 cups cold water and 1 tablespoon salt, stirring until salt is dissolved. Add shrimp, and let stand five minutes. Rinse shrimp under cold running water, and set to dry on paper towels. With more towels, pat shrimp dry.
- In a bowl, combine broth, wine, soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar and pepper.
- Heat a wok over high heat. To test heat flick a few drops of water into wok. When water vaporizes within 2 seconds, wok is hot. Swirl in 1 tablespoon oil around sides of wok. Add shrimp, spreading them in a single layer, so they have contact with hot metal. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes or just until pink, tossing them with a wok shovel or spatula. Add remaining 2 teaspoons oil, garlic and ginger, and stir-fry 5 seconds. Add snow peas and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and stir-fry 1 minute more.
- Stir cornstarch mixture, swirl it in around sides of wok, and bring to a boil. Stir-fry just until shrimp are cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 30 seconds more. Stir in scallions, and serve immediately.

Steps:
- Set a large bamboo or metal steamer basket over a skillet of simmering water over medium heat.
- Crush the ginger slices with the flat side of a knife. Place the garlic and half each of the ginger and scallions on a plate that will fit inside the steamer. Score the fish skin a few times with a knife; season with salt and pepper. Place the fish skin-side up on the plate, drizzle with 2 teaspoons sesame oil and sprinkle with the sugar. Put the plate in the steamer. Mix the soy sauce and rice wine and pour over the fish.
- Cover and steam the fish until just cooked through, 6 to 12 minutes, depending on the thickness. Carefully remove the hot plate. Add the snow peas to the steamer, season with salt, cover and cook until bright green, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Transfer the fish to a platter, spoon the juices on top and sprinkle with the remaining scallions. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil and the peanut oil in a skillet over high heat. Add the remaining ginger and cook until it begins to brown. Pour the hot oil over the fish.

Tips:
- Choose fresh snow peas. Look for pods that are bright green and crisp, with no blemishes or bruises.
- Trim the snow peas. Remove the stem ends and any strings from the pods.
- Blanch the snow peas. This will help them retain their color and crispness. To blanch, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the snow peas and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Drain the snow peas and immediately transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Stir-fry the snow peas. Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the oil and ginger and cook for 30 seconds, or until the ginger is fragrant. Add the snow peas and cook, stirring constantly, for 2-3 minutes, or until they are heated through and slightly tender.
- Season the snow peas. Add the soy sauce, sesame oil, and black pepper to the skillet. Stir to combine and cook for 1 minute more.
Conclusion:
Snow peas with ginger is a quick and easy side dish that is perfect for any occasion. It is a healthy and delicious way to get your daily dose of vegetables. The snow peas are crisp and tender, with a slightly sweet flavor. The ginger adds a bit of spice and warmth to the dish.
