One of my latest "experiments" is growing pea sprouts/shoots. I chewed one to see how it tasted and it seemed a bit tough. So I did a little research and learned I could just harvest the tops and that will encourage new growth. Here's my growing tray after I took a little off the top:
While doing my research I found a comment in a discussion board from someone who shared a family recipe (source). I gave it a try and it was fantastic! Here's the recipe for you to enjoy:
Korean Pea Shoot Salad
Pea shoots
1 T garlic, chopped
2 T soy sauce
1 T sugar
1 t sesame oil (I used toasted sesame oil)
1/2 t red pepper flakes (I used less)
1 T sesame seeds
Blanch the pea shoots for 1 minute, then rinse in cold water and squeeze out the excess water. Mix the rest of the ingredients and pour over the pea shoots. Refrigerate and serve cold.
Bon appetit!
