I had little time. I had fresh snap peas. They went from fridge to table in less than five minutes. Just saying.

Fill a medium sized pot with water. Add a pinch of sea salt and place on a medium high flame. When the water boils, drop in the snap peas.

When they rise to the surface and turn a brighter shade of green (this will take less than a minute), remove them with a wire mesh skimmer or a slotted spoon.

Icing on the Cake: Testimonials

I’m very impressed by all the elements you are able to pack into the lesson without it seeming at all overwhelming: the review, the actual cooking skills, the creativity of coming up with their own dishes, the chance to present their creations, the opportunity to learn about and share thoughts on something else (in last week’s case, the feelings represented in the book), the execution of their  jobs, the responsibility for one’s station/implements and the overall following of directions…..all without losing the fun quotient. No wonder the kids love coming!  You’ve really created something special so kudos to you!
