Sugar snap peas are just fun to eat! They give a good crunch, you don't have to de-string them, and you can eat both the tender pod and the sweet little peas zipped inside.
The ginger here is pan-fried until golden crisp and can be used as garnish for any number of vegetable dishes. Available throughout the year, sugar snaps peak from February through September. You can also substitute raw peas.
