- 1 pound sugar snap peas or snow peas
- 1 tablespoon water
- 2 teaspoons canola oil
- 3 scallions, white and green, sliced
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger

- 1 tablespoon rice vinegar

Very tasty and flavorful!! I wish the sauce was a bit thicker though, maybe add some corn starch to it next time. The Miso gave the peas a wonderful flavor, my husband loved them too, didn't even tell him how good it was for him. LOL

This recipe for the snow peas was so flavorful and delicious. I couldnt believe it. You have to try it. This is a good side for fish or Asian cooking.

I tried this recipe because I was looking for a new side dish that would give my entrees a nice boost in flavor. I was VERY pleased with the results! I served this side dish with some bland, but healthy, chicken breast and it made the dinner a HUGE hit! The miso paste adds so much wonderful flavor to the peas that it can turn any boring chicken into a wow meal!
