We’ve been noticing that a bunch of vendors up at the Wintertime Farmer’s Market in Pawtucket have been selling pea shoots lately. We picked some up to try them out and they’re very tasty. You have to pick the leaves off the tougher stems, but other than that, just a little olive oil and salt is all they need. We also have used them to make a coulis to serve with fish…just blanch them, blend them up with a little water and heat with a little butter…either drizzle the sauce on top or use as base to present your plate…they add a nice green punch to wintertime dinner!
