Here is another wonderful farmer’s market find! Pea Tendrils they are delicious, delicate, hardly need any prepping and cook up in 2 minutes. I turn to pea tendrils when I want greens in a hurry.
Pea tendrils are young leaves and shoots of the snow pea plant. They taste a bit like peas a bit like spinach a lot like spring.
I prepare them simply by sauteing them in a bit of olive oil and garlic.
Here’s how:
- Trim the cut end of the pea tendrils.
- Cut into 1 – 2 inch pieces. This should just take 3 or 4 chops with a big knife through the entire bunch.
- Place it into a salad spinner to wash.
- Place pea tendrils into a skillet with 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil and a chopped clove of garlic.
- Cover and leave it alone for 2 minutes.
- Serve and Enjoy!
