Ingredients
The following ingredients have 4 Servings
- 3 to 4 pints English peas in the pod, fresh from the farm
- 1/3 cup fruity olive oil
- Flaky sea salt, to taste
- 1/2 cup torn fresh mint or tarragon
Instruction
- Wash and dry the peas.
- Fire up the grill until it's searing hot.
- Dump the peas into large bowl and give them a thorough rub down with olive oil, salt, and pepper.
- Place the pea pods directly on the grill.
- Grill the pods, pushing them around a bit and flipping them over, until they are slightly blistered on both sides
- Remove the peas from grill, then shower them with fresh herbs and additional salt and pepper as needed.
- Serve the peas with plenty of napkins and be sure to put out a bowl for discarded pods. These are very nice accompanied with a shaved pecorino, crusty bread, radishes and butter, and a glass of sparkling rosé.
