Pea Shoots

No recipe this week.

One of the interesting things about being in a CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) or Farm Share program is you might receive produce you haven't tried out before.   This week of of the items was "Pea Shoots".  

Immediately I googled "Pea Shoot Recipes".  I found that they can be eaten raw - added to a salad or stir fried with sesame oil and garlic.  Voila!  Garlic was also in our share.

From Malandro Farms - 
Did you know pea shoots are great in a stir-fry??  
(like bean sprouts!)
Or that you can dice them up very fine and sprinkle them on fresh pasta?  (like parsley!)
