Buttered Sugar Snaps And Green Peas Recipes

SUGAR SNAP PEAS WITH BROWN BUTTER, LEMON AND HORSERADISH

Steps:

• With a paring knife, remove the stems and peel the pod strings of the sugar snaps. Set aside.
• Using a peeler, remove the rough, outer skin of the horseradish. (Only remove the desired amount to be used, leaving the rest of the root intact.)
• In a large saute pan over medium-high heat, add the butter. Gently swirl the butter and lightly agitate with a small whisk. Season with some black pepper. Once the milk solids begin to turn golden brown, after about 2 minutes, add the cleaned snap peas. Toss them twice in the pan, then add the lemon juice and season with salt.
• Transfer to a serving vessel. Using a hand-held grater, grate the peeled horseradish over the top.
