Sugar Snap Pea and Cucumber Salad with Walnut-Dill Dressing
Sugar Snap Pea and Cucumber Salad with Walnut-Dill Dressing
Remove the strings from both edges of the pea pods (start by gently pulling from the stem).
Place the peas in a steamer basket set over 1-1/2 inches boiling water, cover, and steam until they are just crisp-tender, 3 to 5 minutes.
Drain the peas in the sink and immediately run cold water over them. Transfer the peas to a clean, dry dish towel and pat them dry. Place them in a large bowl and add the cucumbers.
Put the oil, walnuts, lemon juice, water, dill, and cayenne pepper into a blender. Blend until smooth.
Pour the walnut dressing over the cucumbers and peas. Toss until well combined. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
