snap peas and red scallions

March 28, 2014 • Nancy Wolfson-Moche

Also known as red beard onions and red bunching onions, scallions have a relatively mild flavor so are delicious for breakfast. Coupled with crunchy snap peas and refreshing, digestion-aiding umeboshi plum vinegar, leftovers can be refrigerated and served for lunch or dinner.

When they float to the top (should take about 40 seconds) remove them with a wire mesh skimmer or a slotted spoon. Set aside.  Remove the outer layer of the scallion if it is tough. Cut the scallions on a diagonal into thin ovals.

Icing on the Cake: Testimonials

My daughter had her 10th birthday celebration with Nancy over zoom (due to Covid 19). They cooked a delicious meal for 8 people, which all adults and kids enjoyed. Nancy is fabulous in making cooking fun, nourishing, educational, and spiritual. My daughter also did a few cooking workshops with her in the past and loved them. She keeps asking for more. I highly recommend Nancy's cooking classes and party workshops.
