[NEW] Pea Salad

To preserve snap and color in your peas, take the extra step of prepping an ice bath. Whether you’re boiling fresh peas or steaming frozen ones, dump the hot peas into the ice bath as soon as they’re finished cooking. This will also help chill them to minimize the time between cooking and eating as this salad is best cold.
