For peas that pop with flavor, try this. I know I didn't always like peas growing up, but I've got a really quick sauce idea for you that will make anyone love them. So I've just got some sugar snap peas here, but you could also use snow peas or even frozen sweet peas if you'd like. You're just gonna cook them according to the package directions if you're using frozen peas . Or for these sugar snap peas , I'll just put them in some boiling water and boil them for 2 to 3 minutes or until they're crisp tender. And

this in the microwave if you want. But if you've got your peas that are just newly drained, they're gonna be hot enough to warm it through. Add your peas and toss them in that flavorful sauce. Now this sauce is great because not only does it add great flavor, but it also makes your peas look really pretty because it adds a lot of nice glisten to the peas . I'm gonna top them off with a little bit of toasted sesame seeds. And now, I've got a really flavorful snap to my peas .
