Categories     main-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

Kosher salt
3/4 pound sugar snap peas
1 bunch red radishes
1/2 bunch fresh chives
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon cider vinegar
1 teaspoon honey
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the salad: Bring a medium pot of salted water to a boil. Using a paring knife, trim the ends of the snap peas. Blanch the peas in the boiling water just until tender-crisp and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the peas from the pot and cool completely in ice water, about 1 minute. Drain the peas on a paper towel-lined baking sheet.
  • Using a chef's knife, trim the roots and stems off the radishes. Quarter about half and thinly slice the rest to create texture in the salad. Mince the chives.
  • In a large salad bowl, combine the peas, radishes, and minced chives.
  • For the vinaigrette: In a small glass jar or plastic container with a tight-fitting lid, combine the olive oil, vinegar, honey, salt, and pepper. Shake to combine.
  • Toss the vinaigrette with the salad and serve.

A mandoline is ideal for slicing radishes into perfect thin rounds, but a sharp knife also works. The vegetables can be trimmed and sliced a few hours ahead. To keep them crisp, wait to toss them with the other ingredients until just before serving.
