Tips:

  • Choose fresh sugar snap peas: Look for vibrant green pods that snap easily when you bend them.
  • Blanch the peas briefly: This helps preserve their crisp texture and bright color.
  • Make the yogurt-feta dressing in advance: This allows the flavors to meld and develop.
  • Use good quality yogurt: Full-fat Greek yogurt provides a rich, creamy base for the dressing.
  • Crumble the feta cheese finely: This helps it distribute evenly throughout the salad.
  • Chop the dill finely: This releases its aromatic oils and adds a fresh, herbaceous flavor to the salad.
  • Season the salad to taste: Add salt and pepper to your liking.
  • Serve the salad immediately: This is best enjoyed fresh, while the peas are still crisp and the dressing is creamy.

Conclusion:

This sugar snap pea salad with yogurt-feta dressing is a refreshing and flavorful side dish that is perfect for summer gatherings.
