Easy, only blanched 2 minutes which was plenty. Delicious and fresh.
Very good. I blanched mine for 4 min. They were crisp and delicious
I should have reviewed this earlier. I have been adding this to family and party menus for years, and it’s always a winner. The only thing I do differently is that I salt peas lightly just before serving. My guest always love it. It’s so fresh and green!
Even better the next day…
I combined this recipe with another one that incorporates radishes and cucumbers with the snap peas and the result was awesome! Best salad I’ve had in a long time. The sesame oil and seeds give the salad such a great taste. The other recipe can be found here:

Delicious!! And, this recipe works great with green beans, too! I also second the comments on 3-4 minutes boiling, instead of 5.
Excellent!!! So easy and fast. Next time I’ll cook them for 4 minutes rather than 5. I used white sesame seeds because that’s what I had in the house. Will definitely make this one again.
Loved this recipe! Instead of sesame seeds I used Chia seeds from Trader Joe’s and if was fabulous and healthy too!
This recipe was crisp and fresh and luscious. What a beautiful site on our Easter table!
this is one of the easiest recipes i have made..!!! super good!!
